    Just about got the 40 crossmember installed yesterday in Elrod's frame for his roadster. Also started smoothing over the welds from boxing, etc that he had started. Just got to flip the frame over and address the crossmember where the lower edge meets the frame rails. Was gonna hold off on posting pics till it was complete but I like it so far and I know some poeple wanted to see the updates.

    Those welds are MIG right dirty?

    If so, what size wire do you use for frame work?
