AC guinea pig...

Okay I should have most of the day to play on this project... I just realized I need to get up to Harbor Freight and get a new welding helmet as mine kind of took a dump... Well I think I can drill holes in actually both of us together Beyond trimming some of that generic bracket I still intend to weld the generic bracket to the brackets I have attached to the engine. And make them as one..
I've said this till I'm blue in the face but that $89 Harbor Freight welder has paid for its self every time I've used it.. and I've used it and untold amounts of times...
That and before I go I'll make sure I have new cut off wheels grinding disc and flap wheel disk for my $14 four and a half inch grinder... Likely the bracket that mounts the compressor in the factory position cost more than the welder the generic brackets and all from vintage air...
