Grinder and paint makes me the welder I ain't

"Rebuild in a Can". Love it. Looks good and nice repair. Any thought to a TR7? Hard to find I believe, but still ..

I like short-term and longer projects both. Glad you fixed that squeak. Good job on the muffler rebuild, sssst ssssst- à la VGG.

It’s a PRO rebuild. What can I say. Definitely VGG inspired haha!

Those old exhaust brackets are rusty and falling apart from fatigue. I'd toss 'em. You can buy BOTH brackets factory NOS for $100 and they even have zinc plating cause : FAC-TREE haha.

I recently did a similar job to the exhaust hanger brackets on my 82 - welded on reinforcements, sandblasted, coated etc. Several hours later, should have just bought reconditioned ones from Midwest Bayless...

There is satisfaction in doing the work yourself though!
