I'm on a roll!

On a roll I tell ya! I gotta figure out how to post pictures in order, or how to move the pix up and down....anyways...the area where we welded a tab to pull the body tore the sheet metal around it, so instead of just trying to fill the holes with the mig, out came the cut off wheel, and out went the old metal.

Using the dycam (sp?) I made quick measurements of the area, made a patch panel and scribed the area of the new patch. Then made some careful cuts...

I must remember to bring my camera, or leave it at the new joint..but after posting a message to the cortina list...it was the general idea to make the cut outs again. I'm pretty glad I've listened to the great list, cuz w/o the holes, I guess it just didn't look right. So we used quickad or something of that sort, measured out the holes on paper (which Andy pretty much figured out for me, because I know if i did the measurements, thoese holes would never be in the proper areas!) Scribed the holes, made the cut. I thought I had a picture of the finished cut..but I can't seem to find it. Next post I'll have to remember to put it up. I'm pretty darn happy with it...almost looks factory!
