Quote: For the price of a case of Tastykakes you may be able to persuade a certain OC ginger to make a road call I agree it seems as though the weld is your big hurdle - get it done and you can fairly quickly get it on the street. There is no shame in needing help when you are a beginner.
Like I said, time is an issue. I'm gone most week at work. I leave early and don't usually get home till 5pm or later. Only some of my weekends are free. Having all of that and trying to coordinate with someone to come and bring a welder is difficult. It'd be better for me to send the car out to be done completely and made to run and stop properly. Only problem is to get the car out of the garage I have to move the two cars parked in front of the garage and install my steering column to be able to turn the car 90 degrees out of the driveway. I can do that, or as I said, try to learn to weld it and work on my own time
