Thanks mang. Here are just a few follow up pics.

The welds for the MC cover up ground down

A little surgery and opened her up. Got the clutch tube loosened up. Just have to move it over and weld it back up.( You can also see that the gas line has been removed. Will get back to that later ;) )

This is something that I was not really sure what to expect with. The beam bolt nuts were welded up. It must have either rusted one really bad or it was welded cuz one bolt broke clean off. So I decided to cut them out and I will figure something out to repair them. Here is a pic of them cut out on one side.

I have been kinda bouncing back and forth on this and finally got it all finished up tonight. Still needs some love as well as one of the lamp light tabs welded back on. Was kinda pissed cuz I had a deck lid that fit, but after taking a closer look at it, it was bunk. So had to get a new one that has its issues but not as bad.

Took it to the blasters. I knew that I had some welds that needed to be done over
