when you dig farther and deeper you can see there is a big problem with the back of the car.

it gets even worse when you go around and look under the hood, someone stole my 3.1!

i was just trying to free up space in the garage so i put the stuff where it was going anyway. i'll be working soon on mounting the engine, reworking the cradle, and a bunch of other crap.

no time unfortunately. i'm helping my dad put a new engine in his 48 chevy soon on top of my other stuff.

 

i'm heading out to the garage now to make some templates and build some frame parts for the front. i want to get it rolling so i can bring it outside and do most of the welding out of the garage for ventilation and fire prevention reasons.

Too much oxygen in your weld will cause bubbles and splatter and not make a good weld.. Your best bet is to remove all the flamables away from the area you are welding in and put a fan in a door way to suck the welding fumes out.. you dont want too much oxygen or toomuch wind in the area of welding..

 

Thats my .02 take it or leave it it doesnt matter to me.. :smile:
