Between hanging my Quaker State sign and actually driving my 49, I actually
worked on the Bertone today. I have been under the car a number of times.
Looking at how the heck I'm going to free up some space for the exhaust.
Regardless of if I do it or farm it out. Its hammer time ! (again)
Today I worked on the crossmember. The idea is to make it stronger and at the same time use at least one of the factory mounting holes.
I learned that reading glasses REALLY help us old guys see what the heck were doing when welding. I'm not so good of a welder but missing the joint completely ? Oh brother see pics...............
