    Body panel replacement tips/advice needed

    I'm no professional welder by no stretch, as a matter of fact I got some valuable info from a few folks who weld for a living. I have never had any luck MIG welding sheetmetal with flux core wire even when I have my welder turned all the way down. It makes a pretty hole though! I use 90/10...

    what welder for floorpans?

    I have a Hobart 140. Runs on house current, can use either flux or gas, and can use the optional TIG gun if necessary. So far I love it. Bought mine from these guys... http://cgi.ebay.com/HOBART-HANDLER-140-MIG-WELDER-NEW-500500-Free-Ship-/290493264577?pt=BI_Welders&hash=item43a2bf72c1 I have...

    what can I use for a seal? (pic)

    yeah, scored a pair on E-Pray for 49.99 + 18.00 shipping. Blasted and painted them today. Gonna be on the prowl for another pair in the near future, I bought a 71 Scamp Saturday (/6 - 904), good candidate to be a track car, hit on the drivers side and no options, manual everything no air.

    what can I use for a seal? (pic)

    when I pulled my gas filler tube out so I can replace my tank, the little seal thingie just fell to pieces. What can I use to replace it to keep water out of my trunk? I figured that I may as well clean it up and paint it whilst it was out.

    need some sheetmetal!

    looks like I'm gonna need to replace the floor of the trunk in my 72 Duster. Got pin holes where the spare tire goes and the whole bottom piece is real flimsy. Found this out because I had to remove my fuel tank today and discovered how bad it is. This is a driver not a showbird/trailer queen...

    Headlight film?

    question, does the heat from the bulb "cook" the paint? If not that's cool!!! I always saw those blue and yellow headlights and wondered how they done it.

    windshield gasket

    I've never changed one before and I'm scared to death to break my windshield as it is perfect. The gasket on the windshield of my 72 Duster (the one in my avatar) is cracking up and I got the watermarks inside the car now. I already got the wiper arm seals from Schumacher so I guess I'll do it...

    Thieves! They're everywhere!

    Went to park my tow truck at the yard and go to jump in my Jeep to come home and out of force of habit I look over at my Duster and something didn't look right. Somebody stole the wiper arms and the drivers side headlight bucket off of my friggin' car! I lost it a little on the guy that the...
