Need suggestions.
Our plan is to take a patch of metal from a spare door and mold it to fit the rusted areas. Some pictures we've looked at show that kind of repair and seems to work. Here is a pict of the problem area. Any kind suggestions are welcome. This is after removing the weak areas. Attached image(s) |

I cut out all the bad rust after the picture was taken
sand blasted inside the frame and out por 15 on the inside of the frame as much as I could get sprayed and brushed then used 5 different pieces to reconstruct this corner of the frame one piece at a time bend and formed then welded to the parent metal (overlapped to get to the strongest steel) and then welded to each new piece a new engine shelf piece was made last and I bought a small piece of used rubber seal guide to weld onto the engine shelf (that would be too hard to make) and a new battery tray and support then por 15 on the outside, primed and painted Attached thumbnail(s) |
