Could you not get someone to weld a 1/4" plate on each side of the broken
part of the frame?

My mechanic says the metal is too far gone to weld. He suggests
drilling and bolting some angle iron across the weak spot.

Or, I hear that there's a Mennonite shop south of Iowa City about 40
miles that can weld a brace that starts at the front bumper, and ends
at the back bumper. They specialize in working on buggies and wagons,
actually.

(I'm *not* making this up!)
