I was thinkin of seam welding some areas in my car. My friend who's a full time welder think the best thing to do would be to strip back interia paint ect. and just do sections at a time, say 30cm long. Just so you dont stress n stretch the body too much, even jsut having too much heat on one side can worp the car nicely. Anyone on here a good welder ? give us your input on the idea!


jesus, 30cm long? thats way too much, 25mm is what i was told, then leave a 25mm gap, then go again. And the person who said this is georgeos, a bloke who used to prepare the stanzas for portugese datsun rally team, this is something that should not be done without hours of research and then hundreds upon hundreds of hours on the job itself. Infact i would say you should not do it. All this work then youre just going to hoegey it into the first tyre wall you see anyway.
