fan shroud project
could not find a fan shroud that would fit my new rad, so since I got a mig welder at christmas i figured it be a good first projet to learn how to weld sheet metal. i used some angle iron and clamps in order to make the bends. I just need to prep it and paint it black. welding was fun with the gas setup

Re: fan shroud project
Nice job!! It's so much better knowing you did something for yourself than picking up the phone and ordering it!!!
