Not bad. Someone replaced the rockers before so it is in prettty good shape. There is some rusting there but it looks like there is enough metal to weld to.

Make sure you weld the floor to the frame and the rocker real good. thats a big stress point along the rocker without SFCs
Also make sure the jackstand isn't pushing the frame up, before you weld the floor in.
Just a couple tips.

I was planning on seam welding the entire piece. I think the frame is where it is supposed to be. I do not know how to check it for accuracy. Any clues??? Thanks for the input

You should be OK it you keep the stand as far forward as you can, or take some weight off the stand with a jack up front and see if the frame moves at all off the stand. That was my only reason for leaving the motor and wheels on. So it was sitting in it's level position on all 4s.
