              Sweet work! How do you make out welding this metal? what type of heat and wire speed do you use?

                  I wouldn't mind seeing some pictures of your whole car, rellik god. You are always posting tidbits here and there, but do you have a reader's ride thread?

                  Seems like you have done a ton of work, and we all love to see pictures!
