Yesterday's progress.

Cut a section of rust out.



In goes the patch. (about 2 hours to get it to fit well) Coated it with weld thru primer.



Those are magnets I bought to hold things in place. Got them from Eastwood. Totally worth purchasing.

Tacked in. Now about a thousand stitch welds and we can grind it smooth and get on to the next patch.
