New cowl welded in

28/11/09 | by admin [mail] | Categories: General

My photography was pretty ordinary tonight for some reason :no:
Well over 100 spot welds to get these things done!

My lovely clamps to hold the cowl to the chassis!

Tomorrow I will grind the welds flat and undercoat over them.

I’m starting to think I should have put the aircon/fan/heater in under the dash before I welded the cowl back in place, but I guess I will be spending a day or two upside down instead.

Firewall repairs

Got some 1mm angle today and made up the new top for the firewall. Measured up, cut the new piece up, then cut off the old one and welded the new one in place.
I’ll clean the welds up and then paint the whole inside of the firewall with POR-15 paint.

Welding. I love welding.

Rear window is now done, minus some final cleaning up.

New seat bases are now in place. Took some cutting to get them straight. Hopefully they still look straight when I’ve got full length seats with headrests in place.

Long time no update...

Well its been almost 2 months since I have been able to do any work on the car. Got a week off work now, so hopefully I should get some work done.
Got to work today on the rear windscreen area. Should be able to finish it off tomorrow.

I used the TIG for these welds because I wanted a nice clean flat weld, which I could never do with my poor MIG skills. Still need to do a little grinding, but it will be very minimal.
