Last patch...I hope

Well the last known patch is underway. The blasting is scheduled for the week of November 16.
I know that blasting will expose more repairs. I just hope there will not be many.

The last patch started with me removing the handle so I could cut away the rust. I must seem like I enjoy working with rust. NOPE, HATE IT!



After it was off, I outlined the area that needed to be removed and started cutting.





I cleaned the area around the cut.
The surrounding steel was a mess.
It was because of that, that I decided to do a " weld-over" patch and not butt weld the new piece.




All better

Now, I picked up under the car.
The blaster will be here in a few days.
