1971 Chevy Corner

When it comes time to weld the corners, a few obstacles must be overcome. One is at the peak of the corner where the cab skins meet. There's a lot of paint and debris here. For that reason I made sure to clean the area with a wire brush to get between the metals. To make sure the entire area was clean, that nothing was going to seep up in the weld, I slightly heated the crevices and brushed them again with the wire brush.
