nice job, thats the only way to do it, right the first time, and re-weld everything up.


id be scared to cut my car though....

Brett 10-Aug-2004 09:53 AM

It was scary at first, thats why i started on the rear bumper mounts, that way no body would see if i made a big mess. Bezena was up last night to take some pics for a painting quote. He showed me how to finish up a couple spots i wasn't sure of, hopefully it will be in the shop in the next week or so. I should no later today...

Kick ass Brett!
Looks like you've come a long way from your test welding sheet metal on the bench when i came up to see you.
If i ever need to haul up my car for a bit to do some work.
I know to hollar!

OMG!! That is crazy to see, hurt my heart~

madspeed_si 10-Aug-2004 12:07 PM

thats a lot of work man.. goodluck

Bman 10-Aug-2004 04:43 PM

ouch..... looks stressful..... but also seems like it will be very rewarding in the end...... keep up the good work

It's looking good so far, I can't wait to see the final results. I would be scared to put everything back together. :eek:

Brett 10-Aug-2004 06:08 PM

putting it back together is the easy part. Learning to weld, cutting apart and welding back together is the hard part

Jacob 10-Aug-2004 09:27 PM

Question, did you actually cut out a piece of metal and form it into the shape or did you buy a cross canada 1/4 panel and cut it and make it fit?

BTW: You're my IDOL!!!!

Brett 10-Aug-2004 11:24 PM

I purchased the quaters from djxquizt and had rocker bent to shape. But there where many smaller patches that i just cut some metal and beat to shape with hammer...

what kind of primer as u using???

Brett 11-Aug-2004 09:43 AM

At the moment just Tremclad spray balm. Im mainly primering now so my welds don't rust before the body shop...

Notorious 11-Aug-2004 10:31 AM

Thats some great work so far!!! Can't wait to see the final results.

imported_Team Rukus 11-Aug-2004 11:28 AM

Brett 11-Aug-2004 12:29 PM
