Back to work on the car. The first piece of the rebuild puzzle is welded on.
I have an LED shop light and it makes the pics appear blue, sorry about that.
Once I had the right side stabilized again, I cut into the left side. I made the mistake of taking too much metal out of the right side before realizing I needed to repair the mount under the roto arm and having to be imaginative with holding that corner up to move the arm.... not making that mistake again.
Laying on the floor to repair the mount isn't ideal, especially with a rotisserie that is supposed to rotate to make working on the underside easier. Not possible with only 3 corners being held, so here we are...
Second piece welded on. While fitting the patch and tapping around the cutout, I found the metal to the inside of the patch was whisper thin, so cut that out too. I'll have to make a small patch for that too.
