    I got the bulges tapped down and welded up. The straight one was no problem the one on the bend was a little harder, but I think they will do. Luckily , and what has probably save the frame all these years is the use of shocks on the frame.
    Time to start with painting the frame. Looks like it has enamel paint on it.

    Before welding


    This one was a little harder due to the bend and thinner material at the bend. I had to stick a screwdriver in the slot because the metal in the middle of the crack wanted to fall below the other edge before it got into position, and I ended up with a gap. I tacked the crack up and added more material in the area.


    Welded up.
