Hi,

I'm new to the dorifto scene and having just picked up a mercedes sprintah I was looking to mod it ASAP.

I was starting with the body and of course this leads to the previous posts question about welding. I was told that if I plug weld my riveted seams that I would have results that would have been previously unknown to have existed. Perhaps even to the point that I won't need strut braces, roll cage or even teh famed coiloverz.

But seriously. Should I mix my riveting/welding genre, ie: stell chassis, stainless rivets and alloy welding (I've heard this can be done most sucessfully with my $99- supercheap gasless mig)

I was going to chop the roof as I thought while teh sprintah has good head room, it may be impeeding on it's performance having such a high centre of gravity. But Tony at the local chop shop said it would be fine. He also gave me a good deal on a 5M front cut, $2800- was pretty good value I thought.

Well must go, con is busy drilling the seams and riveting waits for no-one.
