Thank you I have to tell you. Mike Cline is 70 yrs old and he is the man. He is the only stripper ever to win the von dutch award and the tony the greek award. He is in the strippers hall of fame. He really is a great guy for the industry.

You can say that again

*R.A.D* · 06-05-2012, 07:19 PM

now thats cool!

**67cheby** · 06-06-2012, 10:49 AM

i only spot weld panels like that 2 spot welds, skip, 2 spot welds.......

65Pickup · 06-06-2012, 12:37 PM

I've been trying to figure out this discussion on warpage, completely missed the fenders...awesome style. Tootsies burnouts will look amazing as the smoke flows thru those holes!! Your Dad's probably not too wrong on the fix, but I trust you'll get it right.

**superflysteiny** · 06-06-2012, 12:45 PM

You guys no I just want the metal to be as close to perfect as possible. I dont want alot of filler on this truck.

hey thanks for looking in on my build i appreciate that.

you've always gone for perfection. and that is to be admired. if you tack every two inches and come come back and piggyback your welds until you have it completely welded. this gives the metal a chance to cool and will reduce if not eliminate the distortion

stepside83 · 06-06-2012, 09:00 PM

any progress, hope all is well

**Bowtie468** · 06-07-2012, 02:32 AM

Wow, that some really nice work !

Thanks man I did that but I think the cender sagged in the center when I put the two pieces together on the second fender I did not have this problem.
