    Rear end gear ratios

    I am working on a chassis that will carry a 1930 Model 255A Natural Wood Special Delivery. I have a set of 3:54 gears to replace the stock 3:78's.

    Frame Rail Side Mount Holes

    I have a '30 rolling chassis that will become a 255-A when my (honey do list) is shorter. There are 3 dimples in the rail just behind the rear motor mount(on both sides). Are these the position marks for the side mounts? The chassis is from a tudor with a rear mount! Thanks, Fourthirty
