After removing the engine mount from my passenger side (hell hole), I decided it might be fun, as a side project, to try and restore instead of replace this item. Not sure if anyone else has ever tried this (I'm sure they have) but I'm thinking... why not. Famous last words! So, here we go....
View of the engine mount pulled out of my very rusted out '74 LE. Note the rust (red arrow) on the back.   Beginning the process of drilling out the many spot welds around this two-piece, 14 gauge metal part.  |
