Time to put the rear chassis rails and floor back together. First pick up the body and put it on the work bench.
Not many vehicles you can restore on a workbench!
First was to cut a small piece of pipe to insert inside the chassis as a crush tube for the damper arm mount as this is in a different position of a car chassis. I folded a channel section and insert inside the chassis where they joined. Smoe holes were drilled so a few extra plug welds could be added. As the outside pice of chassis runs unbroken past this joint I think it will be plenty strong enough.
Some other pieces of steel were clamped top and bottom to align the pieces.
