I love working with metal. It's so forgiving. It never ceases to amaze me what can be pulled back into shape, rewelded and is good as new. I have to fix the mangled fiberglass bumper next, so we'll see what my opinion of that is when I'm done.

I did that! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hide.gif) That's Gopack's car (Mark) I hauled it out to California for him. I installed those clip in straps on my trailer thinking they were really slick. I didn't even get out of town and one released. The car rolled forward and ended up over my trailer against the rear bumper of my truck. The rip was from the ball lock. It caught the trunk floor and ripped it as we pulled the car back on the trailer.

Oh the humanity!!... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) Lucky for me I happen to be delivering the car to McMark's shop where it was to be stored until Gopack moved out from Wisconsin.

Very nice repair Mark! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/assimilate.gif)

It takes time, but yes, you can do seemingly anything with metal.
