Im sure with some practice you could of welded this yourself instead of bringing the car to philly. Mig welding does not take much skill, but I guess not having the equipment would be the biggest issue for you.

Yeah Spence, I had a couple people tell me that. However, I was headed to Philly anyway, I don’t have a welder, and the most metal work I’ve ever done is brazing. So it worked out well anyway.

progress looks good. that metal has to be thicker than Geo metro floorpans. that was a pain to weld.

Actually, i just bought some more stuff and I have completely filled another storage facility, so I’m pretty sure I’m selling this again. I’ll entertain offers.

_shrug_ I’ve got another 951 that runs, an e30 that runs, and the M5. Hilariously you only know about SOME of the ones that dont. 😉

Actually getting rid of this will help get the track car done.

And I’ve been steadily working on some '60’s british material as well.

Seriously what do you do for a living? I cant imagine having a day job that affords you to work on your cars as much as you do and still pay enough to BUY all the cars that you have. WTF. You really should keep this and finish it and then sell it if you really want to.
