The Disuster
Got some work done on the right rear. This is the side where the shackle mount was completely disconnected. I'm not sure why this side decided to do that. The frame rail was eaten through, so the first matter of business will be to make that solid again. No big deal, just some 1/8" plate and some JB weld.... just kidding, I'll use gorilla glue....
Couldn't help myself.. I had to do some tugging on the mess which was the quarter panel. some previous owner had covered the rust issues with aluminum plating and up to 3/8" of bondo. The Drivers side is the same way. It looks like I'll need to buy a couple of panels.
If all goes well, I should have something for that shackle to bolt to by the time a go to sleep tonight.
