His current frame is rotted. He's doing a frame swap.

 

Ahh... I see. Gotcha. Thanks!

 

AHHAHAH!!

Alright, I had no reason to reply to this thread until now.


WHATCHU TALKIN' 'BOUT, WILLIS?!

And there is no underscore!

 

have to get a computer before i upload pics and im not doing a frame swap i was ganna have a small rot spot on the front welded up hah. I decided not to since my mech told me it wasnt bad. I already coated it with a rust reformer (paint on type) them primer and paint and undercoat. It wont get any worse plus ita not big so why bother unless its getting worse. Ill try to post some pics from my phone but idk how to ? .

 

If you can, use photobucket if you have an account or use tinypic like I do. Upload the picture, copy the full img code from the "forum" section and paste it into your post.
