Glad that's done...

OK so this metal repair thing is a bit addictive, even though I'm not so good at it. Disclaimer before sharing, my welding stinks. My welds are fat and ugly. But my grinder worked, so I suppose I'll get better...

From this:


To this:


I smoothed the welds on the seat side, but not on the firewall side. That will have to come later.

Had to fab up an under gas pedal piece, didn't seem so simple since it had multiple compound angles. I used some cardboard to figure the shape, then bent and welded it. It actually turned out okay.







So I'm back rolling, just in time for driving season...Passenger's side isn't quite as bad, and will have to wait for next summer.
