Welded up my exhaust today, it has only been 10 years since the last time I welded, so I think I did fairly well. Was using a Lincoln Electric Handy Mig.
Still have a few leaks to close up, think I'll get redneck and just use some exhaust weld stuff.... Haven't replaced O2's yet, soon.
Here's a video, straight pipe to stock muffler:

Next will be either a CherryBomb or Magnaflow....

That just shows how well the stock muffler flows, I guess. Mine isn't even that loud and I've got a Thrush on it.
After timing set, new cat and o2's are on my list.

p.s. Any pics? I am seriously thinking of doing that to mine, but to protect against the mesquite, rather than rust.

Checked bearings in belt tensioner (6203 LU) and idler pulley (CG 425). They were good. Will pick up new bearings next time I go to Abilene to get paint and 18 ga sheet metal for project car.
Replaced front wheel bearings, added 14oz. gear oil in diff and topped of trans fluid. Chasing growling noise. Rear axle bearings go in tomorrow as well as new tires put on (ordered them today). Drained catch can...about 2 oz. Changed oil.
