Weld first ask questions later... That's my motto. Here you
can see some of the seam welding I've done, There is a lot of it . Also the
back of the fender well has been moved back about 2 inches |
|
 |
here is the other side. I think
I've used about 4lbs of welding wire just seam welding |
|
 |
What it looked like before I
moved it back |
|
 |
Soooo much work..... but I love
it. |
|
 |
Is it a 2 door?
Is it a 4 door?
No its a 3 door 510. It was a 4 door car but I drilled out the spot
welds and moved the door post back about 6 inches. I'm using 2 door doors
for the front. For the back I'm cutting the skins off the back doors and
welding them in place
It will be a 2 door 510 when I'm done |
|
 |
you can see here were the
post use to be, and were it is now. |
|
 |
There is a A LOT of spot welds
that need to be drilled out
|
|
 |
The roof tapers down a little
bit. so if you don't shorten the door post it will bend the top piece of
sheet metal on the rocker box when
you move the it back, like I did. |
|
 |
Its not as hard as I thought it
would be to weld the door skin in. |
|
 |
I had to make a filler panel to
go for the skin to the door post |
|
 |
I finally got the door in, but
there was a 1/4" gap at the top of the window frame and a 5/8" gap a the
bottom of the window frame. So I cut the post on along the back side and
pushed the bottom to fix the gap, I'll have better pics later |
|
 |
finally got trunk delete kit
installed. had to make room for my roll cage/tube frame, coilovers, big
tires and fuel cell |
|
 |
I used up about 12 cutoff wheels
cutting it out |
|
 |
No, I didn't even bother cleaning
out the trunk before I cut it out. |
|
 |
hey look.. I got a 510 hovercraft. |
