    You got the right idea, practice on scrap fender:nice: That welder will get you by to do a engine bay and other sheet metal work, but don't plan on welding anything thick, you can't get enough penetration with a 140. But from the sounds of it, you are just doing sheet metal. Its actually not...

    project 91GT

    Good question:nice: All the big holes had patches made and welded in, all the small holes were filled by holding a piece of brass, or was it copper?, behing the holes and welding them shut. The reason for the kitty hair/duraglass, whatever you want to call it, was to smooth everything up...

    Thanks. The seam sealer is just 3M Brushable Seam Sealer, probably can get it at any local paint store. It does stink, but its probably the best seam sealer you can use. When you use it just make sure you have a couple fans in the garage door for some ventilation, then its not so bad. We...

    quad shock debate

    A panhard bar would be used if you went to a three link setup. with the factory 4link, the top control arms being angled make it a triangulated 4 link, which means it doesn't need anything to keep it moving side to side. with a 3 link you have nothing keeping you from moving side to side...
