Re: Project "Financial Burden": 1968 SWB C10

Now we can start welding! I like to start near the rocker panel and work my way around about every inch or so making sure that the panel fitment is tight along the way. I then weld in between the previous set of welds and then in between the next and so on until you have a continuous weld. I like to lightly smooth the welds in between each round and use a wire wheel to keep things nice and clean. The wire wheel also removes the heat marks so you can see exactly where your new round of welds are located. I take a lot of time in this process to keep the panel cool.
