alreet chaps :)
been reading alot of project threads and welding resources on the internet and have seen that seam welding is one of the first things to do to strengthen your car.
I just don't fully understand how to go about doing it?, for instance on my nova the seams around the edge of the engine bay have rusted, no holes, but there is definate rust, all i thought of doing would be to chop out the seams (with a grinder) bend a plate to the original shape, then weld in.
but of course then i would have 2 seams where there used to be one!
