right yesterday came home to find that my bro and dad had been welding up the car
While I want to have a good crack at it myself and improve my welding, the car is rotten enough for me to learn on the other bits
So bits that have been welded up are !
- Bottom cross bar
- tie rod mount repaired
- holes in arches welded up (altho starting to wonder whether tubbed was the way to go but nevermind)
- Battery tray plated and welded up
- I welded a patch into the otherside just before i went on holiday.
So nearly there with the engine bay
Pics man pics.
Your bro and dad did mention about doing your car while you were away, how nice of them.
Will put up pictures
.. so i'll crack on with other non welding tasks while he has pinched it. which is no problem
Right so pictures
My bro and dad have been busy, bless em
First up, the nut which holds the tie rod bracket on was fooked
Next was the battery tray. We went decided to plate it from underneath, so if the oem panel starts to melt away, there is extra patch material to fill the gap
Heres the patch i did before my holiday. I coated it in POR15 once i'd welded it in. Was a bit of pig on my own but i managed it. (fooking OEM panel melting away)
Next is the new cross brace
Im really happy with it to be honest, its welded in now and I just need paint it up
Next plans are to get another few patches welded and then time to paint it
Some brilliant work being done on the car mate, will be well worth it once done, bet your missing driving an s body though.
Also, your dad gunna make a few more of those x members? at some point id like to change mine.
Coming along dude, sucks about boardinbg accident! hopefully weather will purk up and people can actually get some work done!
Keep it up.
Looks super duper!
