I'd like to compare the welding which is shown in this thread -- to the welds on my 37 Ford... bought by the way - as a complete "RE DO" project... the new frame is in the trailer as I write!

Ya think? I was thinking - that whomever welded this.. should have laid down the equipment - stood back and said to himself... "Self! I think maybe I should call one of my buddies that can actually weld".

To top this off - the dumbass continued to complete the car!

Oh well - it drives so poorly that he decided to sell it at a big loss -- so guess there's an upside to it cause now I own it!! LOL

All welds are done by a machine

Greg,
Those welds look like ass. I am so glad you are not actually driving that car on a regular basis and have a new chassis for it. That is a huge accident waiting to happen.

I have seen this car in person, the rest of it looks just as bad underneath. I can't believe someone thought that was a good way to build a car. That guy needs his tools taken away forever.

I like your idea of taking his tools away. I'm thinking "for life" as the guy is too stupid to ever learn... LOL

PS -- before I ever dropped the car off the lift - I took out some of my die grinders and cut all the suspension welds out -- to call them welds is just WRONG - and hit them with my MIG machine.... I did NOT try to weld over this crap. That is impossible to do so cut them out first. I didn't do the motor mounts - can't get to those without pulling the motor... so each time I drive it - I worry that the motor will fall onto the ground....

EEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
