Default First step today; cleaning out the workspace

Cleaning out the garage today. Decided to get rid of the 1938 Dodge sedan as it isn't, and never will be worth the money I'd have to put in it to make it "right".

Will be a little sad to see it go, as it was my Grandpa Herman's.

I also did a basic inventory of what I need to move forward.

Project two, after garage is cleaned out, is to build a welding jig. Any suggestion of a design would be appreciated.

I will also need to decide on what IRS I want to go with; the placement of the ladder frame final cross-member is dependent on which IRS you plan on installing. AFAIK, the choices are: Reproduction Salisbury, XJ6, early 90s Ford T-Bird/Lincoln and 2015+ Mustang.

List of things to buy:
110V MIG welder, gas, wire, stand, helmet, gloves & apron
Metal cut off saw
Tube notcher
Something to cut shapes out of sheet metal
Welding "square" magnets

Tubing for welding jig
Tubing for car frame

Any other suggestions are welcome
