After taking off the 74 front end and mocking up the 72, I decided to start working on the rust repair and mods. The rust in the right front frame rail is pretty bad. The cross member has had some repair already.
My friend Tim has a rotiesssrie. It is a really nice unit, but it has the standard small caster wheels for moving around on smooth concrete. We have decided to modify it so that we can move it around on gravel, on/off trailers, etc. We are going to be adding some spindles and trailer hubs so we can mount car wheel/tires on it.
Also, My son loves to help!
How about 7 lbs of rust falling to the floor after sweeping up the shop! Kentucky Lightweight!
