My 65 Valiant Vert Resto
Next was some repair to the front left frame rail. It was pretty bad so ended up cutting a lot out. I made my own metal brake and bent up some 14ga steel to match the profile. Then cut a pie wedge out to form the kink. I welded it up along the whole seem and also did some plug welds. It’s solid. No judging my welds :) I never welded anything before until starting this resto so I’m learning as I go.
