Mopar K-Frame Klean Up - 1972 Plymouth Duster Restoration

Upon cleaning up our 1973 issue V8 engine cradle/K frame that will be an upgrade to our 1972 Plymouth Duster, I noticed the factory welds were pretty sorry, and some acid/moisture rot in the front lip. I proceeded to lay in some mildly pitiful welds and a fresh new section to replace the rust before I eventually paint it.
