Hey! Those toe boards look just like mine! Did you sneak in my shop and steal them..??!!
.. Oh.., mine are still here
... never mind
.. LOL!
Seriously, those look just like you used mine for a pattern, but you're several hundred miles away. You have a good eye for size and dimensions. An acquaintance of mine used to call that "calibrated eyeball". I like that term.
Anyway, since I made mine (about 15 years ago) I have used them many times on my cars and friend's and a couple of them have made sets of their own. On a beam axle like my '31 and '32 and the roadster I sold a while back, I set the caster with a bubble protractor and the toe with these boards. I never have to pay for an alignment.
Oh yeah, the orange tape in my picture was just masking tape holding the boards up against the tires. Otherwise, they would fall over if I tugged on the measuring tapes.
