Re: 68 Second Chance
Got the corner tacked in and started working the cab corner. After tacking in a few places I made two cuts in the corner of the bend and worked getting both of those lined up with the true cab radius. After getting them lined up I tacked them in a few places to hold the cuts. Then moved on to cutting a small piece to fill where I made a over cut and had to much space to fill in with a weld. Once I got around the corner I did phase one of the grinding to see what is left to fill. Needed to take a brake since I just spent a little over 2 hours today to get to this point. I figure I will have at least another hour or so just in finish welding and grinding the metal so I can get to a point where I can start on the filler work.
Next go at it later today I will try finish the welding and grinding. Drill holes that are marked for spot welds into the support and tack those in. And last would be to cut a small section that needs to be patched on the far left close to the frame.
Pict 1 - Shows where we are at after the first break today, and the marks to be drilled for support spot welds
Pict 2 - Shows the close up where I had to make two slits in the corner
