At it again....
I believe I have things lined out so I can start on my blazer again. All I have to do is the body work. Everything else is pretty much done or lined up to be done.
I helped my neighbor build a big nice shop and he want me to use it. How can I say no . I need to pick up a mig but I have to wait for "THE MAN" to send me money owed. I have all the panels I need so hopefully the process will role along pretty good. Heres a couple pics of what I've done so far. In the beginning.... The middle.... Home Stretch I'd like to think so anyway I'll post up some new pics when I get it moved to its new home. I'm looking for a new mig welder. I've been eyeing some lower end Miller and Lincoln. Anyone have a suggestion? |

Re: At it again....
I like my Hobart Handler welder, made by Miller and works well.

Re: At it again....
Your floor boards look like mine, piled all my tools around the problem area, and hoped one of them would make the hole disappear...
Keep the pics coming, nice progress. J

Re: At it again....
I'll get it done quicker if you come help..... Still haven't moved it yet. Waiting till I get the welder... Can't decide between the Hobart Handler 140 or Hobart Handler 187..... Hmmmmmmmm

Re: At it again....
I have a Hobart 140 and have no problems welding anything automotive. My personal opinion is that the 187 is overkill.
