It's coming along nicely.
You better have those new welds inspected.

I'm happy to help, but I really didn't do much. What's important to remember is that Midlife owes me.

That is so weird! TurboT just got one of those for free as well.
Is it all aluminum? If so, I can't weld it. My buddy (whom you met) can, and I'm sure he'd do it for cheap.

cheap is almost as good as free in some cases as in yes these are aluminium and yes they need a couple of welds (or new mounts across the top)
