I removed the paint from the previous work and found only rivets were the two for the subframe cross member. Those two rivets are missing on the other side. I'm going to just leave the three holes arranged in a triangle, maybe I'll find out later about that. I'll just put fasteners in the open holes that I have in the subframe and install rivets in the two missing crossmember. keep driving on. I do thank you for the pictures; also I have two patch panel for the area, but didn't use them as they were way to light weight of gage metal. Used raw flat stock steel.
