ok guys.. since i dont have a welder right now i decided to start cleaning up the frame.. when i started sanding over the notch i found this..

its about a 1/4 - 1/2 inch thick.. its just globbed over the nasty welds.. so needless to say i got some touch up welding to do and finishing to do before i do what ever im gonna do to it..

but this is what i got done so far..


im going to fill all un necessary holes.. and run my hydrulic hoses and wireing through the frame after i plate it.. i think its gonna look good when im done.. i still need a fuel cell if anyone can build one for cheap or what not.. but any sugestions let me know..
