You know, I'm soon 45 yrs old. I can't remember when I stopped believing in magical stuff like easter bunny, tooth fairy, Santa, etc. But its been quite a while.

I cannot for the life of me begin to speculate exactly what it was that held the front of this car attached to the main body.

I'm stumped, I really am.

Magic?

I don't know how else to explain it. It had to be magic.

Here we go diving into that was thought to be the "strong side" of this front end.








Surprise! The inner rocker plate is bad too.




Peeling the onion....




Well, I can look at the other side for inspiration I guess.

The real discouraging part is that my assessments have been off by quite a bit. I had originally just purchased a front outer section of this RH front frame rail. The bumper bracket interface, below the battery tray.
Later I decided I needed a full length outer plate for this frame rail....

Now I'm wondering if I should have ordered a complete fraim rail weldment like I did for the LH side.
