CBR Jeff Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 haha, yep certainly taking it down to it's bare bones..hope you like plug welding? Good point Gav With all that re stitching it would be worth getting a small spot welder. Would be much simpler, neater and end up with a better job. Jeff Quote

Administrators gav240z Posted September 29, 2017 Administrators Posted September 29, 2017 Only problem with some spot welders (as I've discovered) is the jaw area may not allow you to spot certain section. Eg: Bonnet skin and frame, I could not get the spot welder in between the folds to use it. So had to mig it. But they are well worth having, I plan to use 1 when I replace my roof turret! Quote
CBR Jeff Posted September 29, 2017 Posted September 29, 2017 Nice that will get 80% of your welds sorted out. Then you can just plug weld the rest. Jeff Quote
JDM-TOY Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 Nice build mate. I agree, this is the best way to restore a classic. daretobedifferent 1 Quote
luvemfast Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 Good work on a big task. I love a quote from Ep 1 "You can always get rid of rust" Noticed you were kneeling on something. You might want to invest in some kneepads or get some workpants that have padding in the knees. Makes it much nicer. Will subscribe for sure. Quote

HomeBuiltByJeff Posted November 12, 2017 Posted November 12, 2017 Maybe, but I don't have to pull mine down as far as you. Keep it up, I am enjoying your progress. Quote
theremm Posted November 12, 2017 Posted November 12, 2017 Are there any risks regarding structural integrity and overall body geometry after separating the panels to that extent? Quote
