Right on man. Probably not in this section then. No worries.

Had to make some front motor mounts for my dragster. Tube is 3/4 .058 and plate is 1/8". The other pic is the boss that goes over a 3/8 stud.

Wouldn't consider mig welding squirt gun welding. Quite a bit more controlled than that.

The only reason people do mild steel over moly ... Let's face it! It's cost.
I am not a DIY er. Am a do it all guy. Can't afford an acdc tig rig at the moment. But I can afford to put a good American made mig rig "Hobart 187". You can build a hella safe fairly light car with a Jd squared bender and that rig.
I lied too I can't sew for sh#t. An old friend of mine mother is a retired seamstress. She does my seats and door panel stitching. I would love to be able to pay a race car shop 6k to moly and tig me up. Own all door cars just rather put my money elsewhere. Not running a six second car.
