A couple of those pictures made me think I was looking at a die-cast. Man that's a clean car, great job.

When a side hit is that high the frame doesn't take as much of the impact as you would think. Unfortanatly the doors take most of it, that impact...

Great Chop is there any way that you could post more pictures of during the chop?

A stud welder can be expensive if you dont use it a lot. The one I have was $300, but I use it everyday. If you use one and you dont want to pull...
A lot of new cars are riveted and glued together, but they use different glue and rivets. (some can be $10 a rivet). So your best bet is to weld...
Great post, but I thought you were only supposed to use a propane torch on aluminum.

TCI has one or you could make one if you have the right tools.
If it is bent at all cross measure your center section before you even think about doing anything to it. Also check you ride height (not while on...
