Thread: Body cutting.

Dang, guys some great tips! I have read and re-read them!

hmmm I have already done 3 hrs of welding... Without the battery disconnected... Hope my Power train controller isn't fried... it cost me 350 last time I replaced the tranny.

The welding is going horrendously slowly. I will probably get the wavys outta this. It looks like crap! I haven't done a lot of vertical stuff before. I didn't mention it but the gap I'm trying to weld is a little over 1/4" wide. I finally resorted to tacking in several 1/8" rods then welding them together and to the body panel.

We also made the mistake of trying to tig two panels together while the backs of the panels had residue fiberglass and adhesive.. Ugh! Fire, stench, weld blowout....

You guys are saying sand... How exactly do you mean? Block of wood? 4" belt sander? I have an air powered orbital sander?

Okay here are some pictures say anything you want.. I can take it.


Keep in mind this is my first and my philosophy is, "just get it done but learn while you do it".

Oh and MR.RPM thanks much for the offer! I would've taken you up on the offer (4shore) if I hadn't already passed that point. Thanks again.
