Keith, a properly bonded part is stronger than a welded part ... the bonded sheet metal will tear before the bond gives whereas the spot weld will give way under tension. I did weld areas recommended as per the instructions.

To be a leader you need to innovate


Got the tunnel mods done, check that off the list ....






After the adhesive cures I'll finish off the tunnel mods from the bottom, still needs some material trimmed off, left it long on purpose!!!

Thanks for looking ...

Cool

Time to get busy ... I made patches for the trunk floor pan to tubs, finished off the tunnel, and the patches to close out the front of the rocker panel. Sanded the entire bottom and now it's time for epoxy and Lizard Skin.








I hope everyone enjoys the time with their families, thanks for looking....

Looking great mike!

Vince, I already choose this dark gray sorry buddy!

Well here she is ... not quite Navy Battleship gray but close didn't want to go too crazy w color. Kinda hard to get a good pic with fluorescent shop light, and the color may lighten up a little so more later!












I'll let er sit and cure and then unwrap everything later tonightI Thanks for looking ...
