and more damage to the inside of the box. I'm thinking about replacing the angle iron on the bottom on all four sides along with new uprights of aluminum angle iron.

The upper look from the worst damage. It might lower the amount of space but I am leaning toward putting an angle reinforcement around the top as well. It might help keep the shape a bit after the PO mishandling.

These are some extra long nuts for recessed brakes and work for front brakes. I think these came with some brake calipers a few years ago.

Every eyelet was filled with adhesive. I'm thinking about going to the hardware store and buying 75 tapered corks to fill the void when these are built up like Andy posted a few weeks ago.
