Hey Guys sorry for the two part question, but I need to know if a broken chasis can be repaired. Mine is broken on the right side by the rear bumper. Just can it be welded back is the question? I also need a trunk pan. I just been looking over the web and there are so many places to choose from.

I hope you can get the repairs done. If I haven't already done so, I say welcome to CO.

The frame is mild steel and is easily weldable. If the crack is caused by rust that's thinned the metal, that's a different problem. There needs to be adequate thickness of metal to weld, or else the rusted section needs to be cut out and new metal welded in. There's no magic to this, it's just welding steel. You do need to take care to ensure that the frame rails are aligned properly, however.
