I'm more worried about the paper thin crossmember & getting a solid piece in there. Murphy must stay away, I can mess things up just fine without his help!!!

OK back at it, the rear of this one is worse need to make a few patches in the cross member.The bad stuff cut out Had to trim the cap down on the top, this one was all the way up to the curve away at the topHad him stop by on his way home to mount the leaf spring to be sure everything was...

My door handles were OK, the front bumper was off, I would have had to enlarge the holes on the drivers side mounts to move it back maybe 1/2", I opted to leave it alone, at least it's all shinny & new lookin. I used to see bumper trucks driving up & down the highway by me , now you have to go...

My friends been really busy at work, he does the cutting out & prep work, see what he does on his first round this time (whenever it happens) & when I start grinding I can mess with the settings on the second round. I did mention it to him & he didn't seem concerned??? He has done a bunch of...

I have a 110V lincoln mig, he set it by the chart inside, I think C & wire sped of 5, D is the highest I'll do a test there & then lower the wire speed & see what I get. I do remember I used D on my frame rails, not sure of the wire speed, but I did burn my face pretty good!

I'm the blob master, even when I was doing sheet metal I made way too much work on the grinding end. My bud seemed happy with that first round, He did all that, I guess all I can hope for is that we caught enough good ones that the rear end doesn't fall out when the guy drives away!

OK, I'll try that on the other side.

Ok OK ,took a wire wheel & cleaned the old metal above the welding..........Tried to connect that to the last round of welding???Burned up another 24 grit pad, ahhhh, close enough! Slopped a coat of por15 on, I know that stuffs thin & runny but this seemed worse?

That's up to the boss, see if I can get him to stop by before I paint!

Got a go on removing the shackle, did a bunch more grinding away on the nastiness, got it to where I could live with it. Tomorrow, I slop some por15 on.

Not sure if it will bother him or the owner, It would bother me!

He still uses p0or15, I actually texted him if it looked good enough to slop it on after some grinding, it's his job so I only do what I'm asked, other side still needs to be cut out? The tools won't fit in that area behind the bolt also asked if I could pull the bolt to get to the back area?

Knee deep in rust AGAIN! My friend took a side job I'm helping with, rear frame rail caps on a jeep!

Will the second mortgage cover it? Can't wait to see this going back together!!

When I sent my dash out the guy sent me a box to ship it in, I think it cost me almost as much as when the dash was in it?

Yep on the windshield, the first car the guy put in too thick of a foam, trim would not go on, he came back & redid, on the second one I got a guy who knew what he was doing, he came saw the car & said I have the right stuff home I can do it now with no guarantee or come back another time, I...

The fun begins, maybe you can wake this place up a bit, been quiet lately, I miss Jass!!! Headliner & glass are the 2 things I had done, I watched the headliner guy, even after the lessons I had him do the 2nd car too. Glass I removed , probably could have installed but It wasn't that...

Finished off his wheel, back looks better than the front (at least in the pic you can't see all the pit marks!

Now on the brighter side of things, had the family over for my grandsons 11th B-day some how the 'Cuda came up, #2's wife said she wanted to go for a ride, the B'day boy asked also, his little brother said no thanks. So we tooled around the side streets, a little goose of the pedal here & there...

The other day I tried to find my parasitic circuit, took the truck for a spin to charge it up & noticed a bad rattle out back. Crawled under, I wish I didn't, she's rusty back there, turns out it was the spare that was hanging loose & it might actually be worse than the one I did for my friend...
