Rotted66 Build

Got the main patch welded in was harder then I thought not a lot of room for a mig gun to move around in, had to look down the top of the shock tower just to see when I welded the front in. Also cut out the rott in the fender apron and got a patch made and will tac it in tonight.
 
You're going to patch up those holes in the towers someone cut for access to grease fittings too, right?

For sure I wanna match the gauge of the metal for that fix and I don't have it.

With highschool hockey finally coming to a close i found some time to step in the garage
I cut out the bad sections in the front frame and crossmember and sprayed some rust inhibitor inside, i made the patches out of 14 ga sheet metal i think that should be thick enough. I will square the holes up and trim the patches and burn them in.
