Nice BJ Jim. Got rust in all the right places, one thing to check if you get the body off, the chassis where it kicks up at the front to go over the axle is a known weak point, if you are going to take the body off, blast the chassis and then weld some strengthening over that area, apart from that the chassis is well strong.

Glad to see you joined the Bruiser club.
