Thanks Oldcar. I welded the seam on top, then I welded a strip of metal the full length of the indention, and then I went to the back side and welded the seam. It seems really strong.

When I got the truck the po had put bondo on it to make it slick. Of course it had cracked which is how I knew it wasn't done correctly.

That said, I think I got it, but only time will tell.
