some more of my career changing welding skills lmao!
filled in the jagged chunk in the trunk and the welded the round patch on the passenger's side.
next will be reinforcing the spare tire holder, its pretty rotted. I'm just going to weld in a piece over the top of it and the bottom. basically sandwich the rot and seal it all up so water wont get into it. figured it would be easier to form the metal agains what is there, rather then cut it out and try to form it. surely not the right way, but oh well, it'll hold the spare tire for ages beyond my life span and nobody will see it.
