They showed up today so Aaron could weld in his new rear sway bar mounts. The truck was pretty rusty making it hard to do without burning holes right through the rusted metal. So set on low, the welder is making progress, Aaron, being a real man, decides to just jump in and weld right on the car rather than to practive on something else. Here are some pictures for your enjoyment. I know I laughed quite a bit. Here is the car assuming the position.

Here you can see the drip down the front of his shirt as he is learning to weld the hard way.

Not bad for a beginner, He is now learning to use a grinder and wire wheel. Lots of rust in the trunk, so he is cleaning it up now and we are going to try to weld in some more support. I can just see him turning a corner and the sway bar pulling the tab right off the car.

Nice welding gloves there (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) Short sleeves too. I've gotten a "sunburn" from as little as 15 mins of short sleeved welding. Sunblock works too. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif)

Miles, I went back through and read every post in this thread and there is nobody named Kevin, are you talking to your imaginary friend again? Did the medication wear off? Maybe its time for you to go to sleep, I promise you will feel much better in the morning. At least with a clear mind.
