Here are my latest exploits with my TIG welder.

I swear I would marry that thing if it were legal in this state.

I made a rain tray/drain for the header panel to replace the stock fresh air box.

It's all aluminum:

Just today I moved the drain fitting to the other rear corner so the hose will be in a better location for me.

TIG's weld cooler...

Joe's car is even cooler.

So... if you marry the TIG, can I have the Kickboxer? (It's Utah... we can have two or three)

Nice job....but why didn't you just weld the holes closed as weall as the holes for the windshield wiper?

I did that on Frank....gives it a cleaner look.

I have about $1800 in it total (with bottle and helmet). It's some of the best money I've ever spent.
