1971 Chevy Tack Welds
|
Instead of just welding the seam up with one pass, I placed 1⁄4-inch tack welds down the seam and then connected the dots. Also, with each tack I grabbed a third hand, which usually came in the form of my brother Chance, to press the inside of the driprail into the rear of the cab, which kept the three metals close together. In some spots (note arrow), the metals still began to expand from one another. In those instances, I grabbed my Eastwood body hammer and tapped the layers of metal back together before welding.
