Then I prepped for welding on the car... the scary part. Covered everything even close, and disconnected the battery.
Tacked the pieces and then pulled them off to do the full welding. Not my prettiest welds ever given that I was using our old welder, but no excuses! I'm sure as I do more small pieces that will improve. Also didn't want to take the time to TIG everything since I am very slow with that, and not consistent at all. At least with the MIG I know I have good solid penetration and strong welds.
Next step was to cut and bend the torsional support for the mounting plates.
