The welds will be ground smooth once completed to eliminate discontinuities too. I'm just glad that I could keep each bracket to just three welded components.

Very cool and thanks for not getting bent out of shape on the comment and suggestion. I love what you are doing and enjoying this 100%. So next year you need to drive this on the Power Tour, which is happening now here in the Midwest and shock all the Hot Rodders. I think it would be so funny to see there faces when they find out it is a Combo meal... BAHAHAHAHA

I live in Wichita KS and they are stopping here on Thursday night and I so plan to go have a look at all the cars. So wish you would have had this project done and in the show. Till next time...
