Well, I was able to spend much of the weekend cutting, grinding and welding on the front end. My Sporty is a "salvage title" vehicle - its been in an accident, which seems to have only involved the left-front end. The frame looks and measures straight from the radiator to the tail pipe. But there's a bit of lift and twist in the very front, to include the front-body mounts. So, after much contemplation, I decided to chop it down to the frame and build it up from there. It's the only way I can get the bumper to mount up square and level... and it will be solid. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" /> I'll post some photos soon...
