I use the cutoff wheel technique like you are describing... thought maybe someone had figured out a different way... always looking for something easier... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif

Enoch emailed me this in reference to the cutting device he used for the above repair: "I use a mini saw to cut the butt weld seam. It gives you much greater control."

Re: 72 T/A progess
 

More info on the saw: he indicated that it has a flat blade and operates like an air-powered mini jig/scroll saw.

Inquiring restoration guys want to know https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

I would assume that he is talking about an air powered jig saw such as this:

The roof. It seems that whoever repainted the car many years ago thought that taking the old decal stripe off the roof was a bit too labor intensive, so they just bondoed it over, repainted it, and then applied a new decal on top. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif It took a bit of extra work to get the roof flat again.

Progress, progress, progress. Remember, you have an offer of an extra pair of hands if needed after it comes home! Just make sure the coffee is on.
