Aram's 3SGE Beams Levin Coupe

[Aram]

The roof was not fully welded yesterday, and it's not even done today.
But progress was made nontheless.

I removed more parts, the inside of the firewall is clear, and thankfully not much rust is present.



I also removed some engineparts but not anything interesting enough to put on pictures.

Bert was welding all day, mostly with on part that was rusted, it took a bit of work to fix this part.


These were the smooth parts, all protected with zincspray now:













This was the part that needed replacing, first cut the rot out:



Then using a part of the old roof and trying it on for size:






Spraying weldable antirust primer on the back:





Than Bert put a gelly substance on the roof that soaks up the heat from welding, keeping it out of the roof itself, preventing tension in the metal.
Ingenious realy.





And viola, new piece of roof:




Here is a picture from the underside, the red beam was used from the cut off roof section, the one on the car was to far gone to use:



Monday we continue.
