This is what I found under all the fiberglass covering both hinge pivots.

Wow. Sometimes you just gotta wonder what was going through their mind at the time....

Let's see....


I'll just do a little welding here, here, and oh over here too...

There's not enough welding to do so I'll add a big ass fender washer and weld that too!...

Perfect! Now for a little bondo to "smooth" things out....

You know what would look nice.... maybe I should cover this whole thing in fiberglass!!! yeah!!

lookin good! now all you need to do is por-15 it

... and after about 10 seconds with the angle grinder cut-off wheel....

The whole thing falls off!!! Turns out all that nice welding he did didn't stick to anything!

LOL

I just phat welded mine...

Welds probably looked like his, but at least they stuck..

That's what you call repair by commitee. Let's get everyone's good idea in there...

hahaha, Steve Stromberg weld that for ya!!
