Broken Suspension Advice. HELP!!!

[JesseCSUB]

I just bought a 62 Impala 9 passenger wagon and the driver side rear shock mount is broken at the frame rail. It looks like some idiot tried to repair it with a wire weld! I need some advice on how to make the repair and if anyone knows a good shop in Bakersfield, CA or somewhere near? I am posting a picture of the frame rail. Look at the hole! Thanks and HEEEEEEEELP.

Here is another pic. It is the piece of the frame that is broken with the shock.

Looks like the tim worm found that place to be yummy. Best to get the whole section refabricated.

Like they said looks like its time to fab a new section in there,and since that spot looks like that i would check the rest of the frame over while i was at it.

Also i would not recomend stick welding it. For a frame you should use Mig or Tig at around 120-140 amps. Stick welders have better penetration but on something like a frame with a "thin" (1/8-3/16") wall tickness its very easy to blow right through it.
