Re: Problem with the frame on my 1947 chevy truck

Good luck. If I blew a hole in steel frame over 1/8" thick with my water hose I would be under there with a screwdriver and hammer looking for the rest of the rust. My experience has been rust is like an ice berg, you only see 10 percent of what is there. On mine I found a lot of body pin holes that became quarters when I tried to weld them closed. Check the rest carefully.
