Didn't take any "in progress" photos but snapped a few of the finished product.

More photos on my resto blog with a link in my sig, if interested.

Looks good. I'd like to see the step by step of the rocker, sill, floor repair when you do them.

I fully intend to document at least one side with as many steps as possible. My brother-in-law, a body man by trade, has insisted that I call him when I tackle this project. He lives about 2 hours away and states we can knock out both sides in a weekend.

We'll see... he's never worked at my snail's pace!

Very nice job! Hard to believe that you never welded before. You wouldn't be pulling our leg, would you? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif PJ

Well, technically, we were taught oxy-acetylene (sp?) in A&P school but that was only enough to pass the test. Not enough time or good instruction to learn any level of true skill.

First time MIG welding. And I don't consider my welds to be professional quality, either!

Paul - is that a Stearman in your avatar?
