These are from a 1989 Gt Vert I used to have. The sub-frame connectors are Kenny Brown. Work done at Springfield Motorsports in Springfield Va.

Grind down the metal to get a clean surface to weld to...



Cross braces bolted, ready to weld...



Welding done, after this he sprayed some paint on the clean metal to keep the rust down to a minimum...

make sure when you do it you have the car on its suspension. if your going to use a lift, find one what is drive on (not a body lift.)

why is this? it seems like unless it was sitting perfectly level it would be better to have it up in the air, or no?

because when you weld them on, you want the body sitting exactly how its going to sit when its on the ground. the car will flex a little when you set it down, especially a 'vert.
