Don't you just hate previous owners who "modified" the car in this way -
and then you can't get the **** fixing undone next time around!!!

Years ago I saw a fix for this where the guy took a Dremel tool and cut
a slot in the vertical frame wall beside the stripped weldnut. A few
pops with a chisel and the weldnut was lost forever inside the frame.
Anyway, he sized the slot so a flat washer and a new 5/16 nut would just
fix thru. He held them in place with surgical forceps until the bolt
was threaded in from the outside. Luckily, the nut & bolt threads were
very clean such that the nut didn't have to be wrenched when tightening.
He then found some sort of oval-ish rubber grommet to fill the slot.
Hey, it worked and didn't look too bad either.
