whats that first photo of because those welds look terrible.

 

 

I agree too.. But where on the car was that taken.. I can't quite figure it out...

 

That first pic is of the rear 1/4 panel that was just rusted right through. I cut out the rust, bought a new 1/4 panel from www.millsupply.com I had my uncle weld and i think the problem was that he used wal-mart wire with the mig welder. Idk. Theyse are kinda like 1-2 month old pics (i just not got them developed) so ive grinded them smooth, applied fiberglass bondo +regular bondo over them and sanded smooth. Cant even tell now

 

I think my very first weld looked better

In all seriousness that weld is horrible, but it looks as if the car is coming along !

 

Hes not here to show off the welding.......sheesh.

Yeah man, how far are you into it now? What are your plans for it?

 

Hey thanx. This is prety much the first time that I have shown my car (5.7) on here. I have new 91-92 front fenders, 91-92 GFX including new bumper and front chin piece, i also have a new inner bumper. I took off the original 3 piece spoiler on the back, welded them shut, and smoothed them out so that i can put on a high rise. I have a new Big Block hood from hawks. I have new APC seats with new carpet and a Megashifter. A new dash pad and grant wheel. Cooper Ties with American Racing rims. and inside the plastic sacks around my exhaust i have 4th gen tips.

 

Damn dude thats gonna be one awsome ride. What color? every pannel is like new on your car you could go any color...lol

good luck with the project, keep coming with the updates

 

Hey thanx. I know im not suppose to go past 3, but im gona cheat just so that i can show the other people up top what the 1/4 looks like now

 

Most mig welds look kinda sloppy till you grind them down you cant weld a solid beam on panels or you will warp them.

 

ok last one!

 

looks alot better Bet you cant wait till the whole thing is done.

 

well of course you can't weld a single weld the length of the panel, thats why you stitch weld it in short sections. they will still look good though.

 

Oh come on now. I think the end result looks prety good!

 

oh yeah, I'm not knocking the end result, it came out a lot better than I thought it would. I was just commenting on what he said about Mig welds looking bad.

 

Mine look good after grinded down i still dont think ne stitch weld looks good before grinded.

 

I think the end result looks mighty fine.
