Awesome and thank for taking my call.
I will go tack on some tabs and pull the problem just like you show it, should do the trick.

FWIW, and not ot steal Ricks thread, this 993 was done with only a dolly and a shrinking disc. Needed NO filler when done. Only a couple thick ( 3 ) coats of primer. Don't get suckerd into buying any expensive tools (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Awesome work Scotty. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)


Since my last post on this thread I purchased a shrinking disc. I am using on the Mercedes to finish the body seams after welding the panels. I'll have to take some photos and add it to my welding thread.

Awesome work Rick. It's guys like you and ScottyB who remind us all that the American craftsman is alive and at work. Good job.

I have a shrinking disk but have not used it since I don't have a tool to spin it to 3500 RPM (I think). What tool do you use to spin it up fast enough to be effective and at what RPM?

Harbor freight angle grinder. If you have a larger size disc get the big boy. A regular 4" grinder will run it, but the discs edge will be RIGHT at your fingers. I bumped it once and cut through a leather welding glove (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Later went and got the bigger grinder
