'67 old skool dragger
well after getting a job i decided it was high time i moved to something older and RWD was very close to buying a bog standard un-touched 100e until this popped up and i fell in love
drove the 120mile round trip to view it and left a deposit
on the way over it jumped off the trailer going over roadworks
home safely
deffinatly suits my style the paint really sold it for me 
brush painted in red oxide and its staying that way with satin trim
got it under cover
oooh type 3 gearbox
also came with these
after a few days i had all the running gear out of it
multi coloured gearbox
cradle had a nasty crack in it
so i beefed it up, id ran out of gas okay
leaf springs off
how'd that happen you ask
exploded on impact with my hand
not really toched the car since then
so i finished off smartening the axel up
bought a 1300
and offered some wheels up
the plans are lots of fiberglass and plastic and turn it into a 1/4 mile car next winter im gonna try and get a 1700 built up
unless i get really silly and buy a pinto although ive been considering volvo power too

I don't want to take the piss, but the most constructive advise I could give you would be to get some lessons in welding.
Most local colleges run evening classes.
I would say you need a higher setting to get penetration. Most of your welding appears to sit on top of the metal.
But well done for the work so far, keep going!!
