Re: 1950 Chevy Stock to Hot Rod Project

Got my first weld nut welded on the backside of the frame. I bought some from fastenal that had a pilot on them but didnt like how that worked, so I chucked it up in the lath and machined that down some. They still have 3 standoffs on them which allows some more weld penetration so I will likely use them vs standard nuts.

Attached is a picture of the nut. They are 3/8" so I'm drilling out the holes in the frame and the brackets slightly since the rivets I took out were a little under 3/8"

Once I get a few more welded on and get the process down I will post some pictures.
