Firewall patches

More patches, weld quality is improving, small adjustments to wire speed and voltage help when gaps in the butt weld vary, also getting in a comfortable position with left hand steadying the gun and a good view of the weld pool makes for a nice straight weld - not always possible in the confined space under the dash!


Drivers footwell patches continue

And finished with a piss coat of Zinc primer for temporary protection

Onto the passenger firewall/footwell

Plug welded and tacked

Same patch viewed from the plenum

Slow but steady progress so far, little bites on a regular basis, hoping to have the shell welded up and ready to go to the media blaster in about 6 months - we will see!
