Yay -- No more roof holes!

Check it out! I bought a gas bottle for my mig welder, and fixed the holes in my roof

I was bascially filling 1 - 2" holes from rot under the clearance lights, I filled them in, and warped the roof a bit doing it though. Now for the best part -- When I put my clearance lights back on, I noticed that they had the proper contour for the roof, and when I screwed them on, they popped the roof back into shape

The black stuff is just primer that I used before I knew that rattle can stuff was no good, I plan on borrowing a sand blaster to get the rust out of the pitting, then put some epoxy primer down and do the rest of my body work.

Also gotta figure out how to straighten my frame rails up front out. I dunno if anyone remembers that movie with the ricer that gets his rear end ripped off, but my truck had the same thing done, but they ripped the front bumper off with a tractor, then pushed it back with the tractor.... Makes for a slightly crooked bumper, lol
