Someabiatch---this was one hellish day for rust repair. My new mig welder is so freaking hot on its lowest setting I was about to chuck all my tools into the street and strip naked and shout "Ice cream--get your ice cream here"

Well, I finally ran out of the wire that was supplied with the welder when I bought it--it was .035 inch.

I replaced it with the spool I bought of .030--this made a tremendous difference in my ability to weld the thin rusty stuff..

Here are a bunch of pics--enjoy



This one is before front trunk repair. The lower seam where it meets the inner fender and trunk floor was completely eaten away.

Here is the during ---had to form some 15 ga. sheet for the repair.

Here is the after---damn this was a bitch worse than my psycho ex-wife!!!!!

oops! that was not the after--here is another during.....................

A bunch is more than two.

Okay, better.

OK..Here is the after.................

Whoops--sorry for the delay--had to go out and take another one.

This was some serious metal forming here for my desired after effect----

Here is my driver side jack plate before.................

Here is my after----I am going to remove the pass. side jack plate and when I get my fiberglass flared rockers in I am going to close the holes.....

I have jacking donuts at all 4 corners--I want the sides of the car clean..................

Here is my driver side door frame rear...............

Here is my repair--gots some finishing to do to it.......

Damn---I need a beer--or some....

Here is where many moons ago a left fender was replaced--not the best job...............

WOW, this is all in 1 day? Keep it up dude.

So I welded the seam back shut..............

lets see---what else do I have in here????

OK--this is another shot of my front trunk repair.

And I believe that is all for today-----going to go drink "copious" amounts of beer...

hmmmmmmmmm.

Word for the day : " Copious"
