That's not a jack point but rather an engine mount. Regardless, I have rebuilt one myself. It's a very tedious job.

@majkos1 - Nice! If you want to review an example of this type of repair, start on page 4 of my rebuild thread.
LE Restoration Project
I used sheet metal to reskin the frame rail. Pretty straight-forward job using construction paper to make templates. Good Luck! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

the adventure doesn't stop there..........

Carefully head home,


just blocks from home,

tried to avoid a HUGE (Wide) Pot hole,
Bunches of cars were ahead me and all were doging around the pot hole,
Saw one car had a busted rim out of the cornor of eye as I try to avoid the hole,
straddle it and still Bottem out the whole entire front end on payment,
It Hurt! Thanks God my ATS's didn't break or shattered.

Made it home!

Parked Beauty in garage ,
will inspect later.

so after a while working around the shop ,
working/ welding on the other Beauty (2)

Decided to Clean up OG Beauty,
because she still has dirty hand marks on the side of the car.
That's when I noticed This!!
