Here is the beginning to my attempt at a tilt front clip. If it turns out how I picture it in my head it should be radical.

a old family friend built a hot rod pickup with a tilt nose on it, he had it hooked up to gear drive that would open and close the nose by a switch in the cab.

the flip nose will make it easer to work on most likely

I know this is backtracking quite a bit but, what kind of hardware did you use when you replaced the rivits. There's a fastenall down the street from my work and everything they have is too long or too short. I'm going to start tearring down my frame soon and replacing all the rivits with bolts/washers and box it in.
