Yeah, tacking a brace in place woulda, coulda, shoulda been a better idea. Or maybe leaving the cars weight on em?

Thanks Bryan!



So, after cutting the four tops off, cleaning off all the not so old weld and trueing everything up again. With the weight of the car tacked them in place with lots of tacks then pulled and final welded them onto the uprights again. Once satisfied with the support to body fit again went ahead and welded up the rest of it. Yippy skippy, shell went right on without any drama this time!
