    Nice old ford! Good work on the repairs! Are you going to plate it on the inside after the repair?

    I'm thinking that's the right thing to do. At least on the lower lip. It will be a boxed frame when I'm done.

    Here's todays work on the other side.

    Just need some inside plating and this side is done. I think.

    I'm going to box the frame completely, I'm thinking I should remove the rear crossmember, box the frame and then cut the cross member to fit weld it in or build a completely new one for the rear. I'm going to use a 2 leaf spring setup on the rear. What do you all think ?
