Very nice Rick!! Coming along perfect. What quarters did you use on this car. Now how about this other ss post you have/going to get.

Thanks guys,
Yes, Eric does know his stuff, and with his connections we were able to get this spot welder.
We used panel bond between all areas that mate together.
The quarters are GM NOS from early stampings. Only thing is they were originally stamped with no side-marker light openings, so we will cut those in later.
We also decided to cut off the door jamb section for a couple reasons. 1) it allows us to form the door edge gap better, and 2) these quarters have the vent hole cut out in the jamb that we'd have to close off anyway.

Yes Bill, he does have Spot trained very well. Now if I can only figure a way to keep it here for the next &quot;Build-a-body&quot; workshop. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]
