[QUOTE="dettmer13, post: 245401, member: 7802"] Looking good so far! As far as the crack goes, a few things come into play. 1) Will you be doing the welding yourself? and 2) Which equipment do you have? I weld some myself and if that was me welding that crack, I'd go with the TIG welder. I find it easier to control the heat and I can make it a cleaner weld. ALso, I hate grinding bad welds, even if it will be painted over :) Can't wait to see the finished product! [/QUOTE]
