I'm think about restoring my 914 this coming winter. While I have it down to bare metal I was thinking about seam welding the body to stiffing up a 30 year old flexing body. Has anybody done this? I'd just like to hear the "Pro's & Con's" on why or why not to do this.
Thanks, Ralph 74 2.0 |

Literally stitch it. There is no need to lay continuous beads (as far as I'm concerned) I have done it and seen it done many times on race 914's.
