And yea I grinded to much off the lip so I made sure the bottom was welded to it.
 
Yea in the center I welded through so it’s mountainous but it’s in there. Some spots in between some spots is like my music decent here amd there.

Now you're getting those welds!

But, to avoid distortion, you should stitch weld. Do short sections spaced apart, then go in between the first welds, close it all up.
 
My dad happy about the welds. So far so good. I’ll stitch weld tomorrow back and forth i just read. Im tired.

Taking a break today going to play shuffleboard. I’ll update. Me and dad is set real dates now to paint next weekend in the morning before it gets to hot because we have fast activator.
 
Going to paint all of the car except the rear trunk area.
 
Won first place last night. I’m on the board around 35 times since I started last year in April or March. It’s 40 games in one season that leads to one super tournament and I’ve played in about 4-5 seasons now so 40 x5 is 200 so I’ve gotten on the board 35 out of 200 which is good because a lot of good players play and sometimes it’s 39 players they I’ve seen.

You have to come in second place atleast to get on the board.

I tapped the thread holes because of bondo and drilled out the holes so bolts can be used to hold the hood up. I’m waiting on 8:00 so I can start to grind but I may just wait until 12:00 because me and dad is going to go to northern tool and buy some argon and more stuff.
