Body Rot Repair
As is always the case with sheetmetal, you don't want to weld too much at a time because that will heat and warp the repair. Instead, Leo placed tack-welds several inches apart, let the metal cool before adding more welds, and continued the slow process until the entire seam was attached. After each spot-weld, a body hammer was used to tap down the sheetmetal while it was still warm. That prevented the welds from creating high spots that would need to be repaired. View Related Article
