I did some work in the garage last night til 1AM. It’s rreally the only time I can get in there. Got the frame rail all patched in. I thought I took pics but guess not.
Wasn’t bad to stitch it in. The metal is thicker so I could use more power and not burn through. Initial pass was good, but then I made the rookie mistake of welding on top, so the bead is high. Nothing a grinder won’t fix.
I’m only going to grind the inner side in the engine bay for looks. On the outer rail I did fill some holes. I was tempted to start filling engine bay holes but I want to save my gas for the other side first.
I did spray the Eastwood frame coating. Very interesting, thick, stuff.
Just need to spot weld the top plate in, and fold the little tab back over and stitch weld it to the inner rail.
Almost done with first side.
