Boxing plates for engine compartment. Traced frame rails onto poster board (from point inner frame rail splits from outer rail just behind firewall forward to where front frame horn tapers, by radiator). Cut out template and traced it onto 3/16" steel (after cleaning it up on both sides). Used cut off wheel on hand grinder to cut first one, verified it fits both sides then used it as a template for other side. First attempt was with oxy ace torch, angle iron straight edge and c clamps. My torch skills are terrible. I spent hours grinding because my cuts were so bad I had to leave them 1/4" from desired size. Will work on torch skills. Had to use cut off disc or I would never get this thing running. Less than one hour to cut two out versus multiple hours cutting with torch and grinding.
