In part 3, I paint the chassis pan in red oxide primer to protect against rust.

I have started to get the reinforcement bars cut ready to be welded to the chassis pan.

I'm just looking around the chassis finding out where I need to allow for clearances and such.

Just add videos to one thread as you go. I can combine all of the videos into one thread if you want.

I'd check to see it burn the red is toxic or not, some paint is, some isn't.

IIRC, if a paint has heavy metals in it I.E. Cadmium, they have to put it on the package. Most of the issues with toxicity would be related to that I'd believe, as the carrier (oil, acetone, etc) would have evaporated. Keep in mind this information is best guess based on my time in art school.

Looks like it comming together.

At least by filming my progress, if i where to pass out while welding at least you'd be able to call the medics out to help me, The joys of the internet age.

I will have a look on the tin for how toxic it is.

Yeah she's coming along slowly. Cant wait to get it done and ride it again.

I'd like to know your thoughts on what I should do next.
Should I weld then rebuild or rebuild then weld?

depends what you want it to do - reguardless for offroad or speed- it should be reinforced.

Most hot rodders fabricate and build the ride to the way they want it, then take it apart, finish painting and then reassemble it.

On the GT murray i plan on reinforcing it completely for eventual updates.

I have got the mounting bracket and the roll bar itself mounted on the tractor.
