I'll start the explanations and I'll post pictures as soon as possible.
The first step is the preparation of the bodyshell that we have fully welded.
But first of all, we start by removing all the interior and scrape the soundproofing plates.

Then we put a multipoint rollcage made by "Custom Cage".
We started by sanding all the joints and rollcage area.
During mounting the rollcage.
Same cage as mine and looking damn good! It looks like the shell is in great condition too
Thread should be sorted now
Those spot welds aren't going to do alot im afraid. Its supposed to be an inch of weld followed by an inch gap then another inch weld
Like this
I'm agree with you, but we had never welded a bodyshell, this is the first !
If we were to make another bodyshell, we will be going to weld like on your pic.
We paint under the bodyshell with an anti rust and black paint.
Sorry to the bad pics quality, we've taken with a phone.
Cant beat nice bit of stitch welding what spec is the car being built too?
Local lad who builds motorsport shells/cages reckons on the floors 20mm weld 50-70mm gap otherwise cars too stiff and hes been building rally cars for donkeys years. Engine bay 20mm and 40mm gap.
