Real work begins

My Dad, Wayne Stewart Sr., came over on Saturday and we (meaning he) began welding the frame back together.
For those who haven't been following, the original frame was nearly cut in half when the engine was removed about 40 years ago.
Through the modern marvel of eBay, I was able to purchase the necessary pieces to put it back together, but I lacked one thing — the necessary welding skills. The car is parked at a new shop/shed and it took us a while to get electricity to it, but once we did Dad came on out and started working on it.
We're about a third of the way through with putting it back together, once the welding is done I'll be able to put the suspension back on the car and get it rolling again.
Then the real restoration can begin.
