Thank you sir, I am only self taught but I have had a bit of practice over the last 7-8 years,
You'll get the hang of it soon enough.
Lol, I have a few tips in welding car, as they are so different to proper metal

Its not now
Well I braved the cold yet again, Finish my front strut/torret/ inner wing..
Basically made some spacers to move reinforce the torret mount or what ever you want to call it.
Then I made this to go on top, exactly the same as the other side.. should be very strong indeed
From above..
I then wired wheeled the rest of the underseal and brush painted the inner arch with Zinc primer, once it were dry I went round the edges with etch primer. They will all be seemed sealer and spray primed, stonechiped, then gloss painted with 10l 2k once eventually
I cracked on making the wing support like the other side then drilled all the new holes to mount it
and the wing fitted...
As the cross member was now finished I decided to drill the holes for the rad and tie bar mount, then I gave it a good wire wheel and primer. The Inter-cooler mount do need moving though, but that is a job for when I can actually fit the bumper etc.
And How I left it. Definitely getting there now, just front chassis legs, sill and both arches to do
Shes definately coming along mate, although you might need another engine to pull all that metal you putting into it
I think you would be surprised how heavy the rust is I have removed. I will weigh the car when its done, can't see it being much heavier tbh. But I don't really mind as long it is strong
