    I prefer the hammer method, (though cut a slice out of the top of the leg, hammer together and re-weld) Less un protected metal to rust, and looks factory if done right)

    But nice to see the car making progress :D

    the leg was in quite a state tbh, its been hit so hard its actually broke a spot weld on the other side of the chassis leg in the wheel side of the leg so atleast cutting it out will make it look a deliberate mod rather than a botched job, but i take your point that it can be done neatly with a hammer
