I'm repairing the battery tray and related hot spot. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif)
I need your tech advice on the procedure. I want to first make paper templates and then fit the sheet metal. Maybe hang it with rivets or screws before the big weld off. Stock look is not important to me. Just needs to drain and support the new battery tray and pedestal. I will sand off the remaining surface rust before applying rust converting primer. I'm scratching the naval jelly approach. Also, please post pics of your repaired areas. Here's my project. Thanks, as usual!

Drik Wright........this is 914 lore so listen up..........
Dirk Wright's Disease (DWD....otherwise knowed as the "While I'm Here Syndrome"....WISH....artistic license (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) ) effects those foolish folks doing projects on 914s. He found "surprises" while working on his 30 year car and found an ever expanding list of things to "take care of" while buying parts and continually disassembling his project. He drove him self over the edge, solt all his stuff at pennies on the dollar and checked into a monastary in Tibet...I heard. Personally, I think he was so anal that he crawled up his own asshole and disappeared.....but I have no proof (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool_shades.gif) Speaking of anal.... Hi, Ben. Seen Dirk lately? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) |
