So the first step on the latest project will be to repair the frame rail.... looks like some serious rust. The sides look okay once you go up high enough but the bottom is gone. The idea is to cut out the bottom completely, sandblast inside and out then cut out half of the frame section, reinforce it from the inside then do the same on the other side and then recap it.

This should stiffen it up and repair it without having to realign anything or support the car in any special way while this is done.

Okay, LONG break there... yes, we have still been rolling. Just more day to day stuff and less useful/interesting tidbits.

We do have a new project though. A 1971 Dodge Charger. Needs rust work and a complete restoration but should be a great project. Meanwhile the 1968 El Camino SS 396 is going up for sale. Asking 3k.
