"A" sheetmetal assistance.... 3 Attachment(s)
Working on the roadster a lil today,and have a few Q's regaurding the rear "wheelwells". Mine we're too tough to save=anything. I have new/aftermarket pannels to install. I cut out the old stuff,and left a 1/2'' lip.(pics). I will still have to trim the new pieces accordingly. My Q is- do (you) fit and overlap,finnish weld,clean,and call it done,? OR,fit,tack,and grind through for a gap,then weld? My car will be fenderless,so i'm thinking the latter,which is no prob.Won't be shiny black,and more of a survivor,but want to do it right,and not be hack.....
Any help appreciated.......Kid |
Re: "A" sheetmetal assistance.... If you truly want to do it correctly, then butt weld the two panels and not overlap. This allows fenders to be properly installed later on either by you or the next owner.

Yes, Butt welding the panels is the only way to go if you want it done RIGHT. Lapping the panels seems janky IMO...that's just me. |
