Very good info from each of you. The body I have is steel and I won't have a heavy battery load as I don't plan on a stereo or power windows/locks. I am concerned with installing parts that are easily found in local parts houses.This is my first rod build which leads to all the questions. You guys are such a valuable resource, having "been there/done that". I appreciate each and every reply. And I do appreciate the different perspectives on making these installations and parts selections. Much appreciated.
