I had my rig inspected by MarkW the other day and he directed me to take a closer look at the rear of my frame. Long story short, it became very clear that the guy I bought it from who did a "frame off" was clearly lying, or actually did and just didn't care enough to use a clean frame. So now I'm stuck with a dilemma. My 3B runs fantastic almost all of the time (and really only breaks when I start fixing something...) and the body has minimal rust and bondo. Figuring that I have zero welding skills or tools, no shop in the foreseeable future as I'm moving to Seattle, and as always, a limited budget to work with, what would you do? The pictures here show the worst of it at the spring hangers and back on both sides.
Of course, I'm asking this assuming I make the drive from Anchorage to Seattle without bending (or breaking!) the frame and that it's still repairable when I get there...
