Just got my rear trunk pan from Restoration Design to replace my rusty one. Need some help from folks that have done this before. The rear and sides look straight forward - just plug weld in place. The front is what I am afraid I will screw up. As seen in the pictures below, they gave me extra material (~5/8") to do something with. I would really like to avoid butt welding the entire front section if possible - my welding skills and patience are not quite up to it. Is there a way to plug weld the front portion also? It's a trunk that will be covered in carpet so I am ok setting my bar lower than normal (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
Edge of tape rear most represents where new pan extends to (but doesn't drop down to follow original shape) |
