Re: Problem with the frame on my 1947 chevy truck
You can drill the rivets out and take the crossmeber out. It isn't the easiest thing to do but it can be done. I'd still strip that frame down and go over it from end to end making sure that is the only major damage.
The right way to fix it would be to cut the rusted area out ( to good solid metal and weld a patch in the hole you made rather than scabbing a patch over it.
