So I finally have the right side of the car repaired with panels welded in.

I ordered a new panel from restoration design that meets up with the engine, as well as a new battery tray. It looks like from the factory those are spot welded.

Is everyone spot welding them, or completely welding?

Thanks

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Don't waste too much time on it. Plus it will make it easier to remove if you need to. I only tacked mine in with 4-5 and it holds fine.
