Drip rail removal

[z0sick]

I'm no pro... just a guy in his garage. Never messed with a drip rail before and never done body work at all prior to this car, so take it for what it's worth (not much).

A good place to start with drip rail removal is with a decent drip rail.




After you find a decent drip rail, you'll need a good way to destroy them.


I prefer the grip and bend the hell out of it method.




After it's all bent, its time to chop. I took a page from someone else's book and did the chop/tack weld method. (6 inches at a time)



After the whole thing had been chopped off and tacked, I welded between the tacks and cleaned it up with a flap wheel.




End result = no drip rails...
