Bought some welding wire, welding rod, new liner for my MIG, new floors for Traveller 2 and some patch panels for the anterior mounts for the rear subframe. Played with the electrical system on Traveller 2 and dropped off a couple generators and some voltage regulators at my local shop the rebuilds electrical components. I jacked up the rear of Traveller 2, built a contraption to hold it up in the air and I removed the rust that once was a subframe. And I sold some headlight rings. Oh, I almost forgot, I also removed the thermostat housing which was pretty seized on and it was pretty gross and plugged up. Also forgot about carefully hammering out a small crease/dent down the rear left side. Came out quite nicely.

Bought a new MIG torch with lead to replace the one that won't shut off the gas supply. Now I can weld up my exhaust pipe cut in half to reduce the postage :roll:

Fitted ARP wheel studs to the rear hubs on the racecar. Pulled the rear end apart and blast beaded all the parts. Waiting on good weather so I can paint.
