Atomic6's build, history, maintenance, whatever-you-want-to-call-it thread

This Atomic6 guy did it. I was thinking about doing the same but, I'm wondering if you'll have water drainage problems when you seal everything in? There is a reason why there are drain holes in the rockers. My plan was to cut my rusty rockers off. Weld the square tube to the frame instead of the body. Yea there will be a little gap there, but at least I can spray the salt away.

I'll probably just take it to a body shop to fix it. I really don't trust any body shop to make any long lasting repairs though.
