Okay drill a small hole at the back of the crack like the drawing (frankenchevy), than you for that by the way. Weld the crack then plate it. Should I will it on both sides of the crack or that's not necessary since I'm adding a plate?
The truck was in an accident back in 97, but it was never inspected closely, just a few parts were Changed and painted. I believe this is were that stems from. But not too sure.
Okay so found this gem.... Driver side engine bay frame rail. Is it repairable?20200620_213802 by RedGeneral posted Jun 20, 2020 at 10:41 PM20200620_213806 by RedGeneral posted Jun 20, 2020 at 10:41 PM
Nice Job and valid point on painting it. The Aluminum is always a great look but it won't stay that way especially if its a driver and not a show piece.
I do like the aluminum look however I am going with a gloss black and red paint scheme. Below is what I want to duplicate.
The engine compartment will also be red with a black frame.
