I would think if garage clearance were an issue the exhaust should be underslung like factory? I'd put 'er back the way it belongs. Weld a patch in the hole now while you can do all the grinding and sanding without worrying about saving paint. Do you plan on sandblasting? I would. Its the only way to get everything down to square 1. You're normal HF sandblaster and Craftsman compressor won't bend up the sheet metal, its a lot heavier than automotive stuff. As far as the rims go, check on new ones. Some sizes are pretty cheap. I know you can get a 14*38 Farmall rim painted silver from Miller tire in Wauseon for about 225. Your smaller 300U one might be even cheaper. Good paint will probably cost you 75 or so for both, then you still got old rims. We've painted rims with tires on 'em already. You can mask off the tire easier than removing it yourself. I know, we've done it in the field before, its all elbows and a**holes! If you think you might get new tires someday when you fix'er all up nice and pretty its no big deal if you get a little paint on the old ones. You can sandblast them too. The sand will bounce right off the rubber. I would take the fluid out though so no one gets squished!
