      Right, the weld on the steering knuckle was perfection. Great penetration and fill!

          No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.

                    when welding under 2mm thick metal I swap to tig ;) it's very easy to weld with mig when there is enough material.

                            Must say those pics are epic, there is never too much those to watch...
                            Just maybe stupid question. It looks like there is that brake booster away that ITB air tube.
                            How much it will affected if it is a turned little upwards, to clear that brakebooster
