Rear Panel Patch Repair - Final Weld


I put tack welds between the Clecos..then took them out and finished the weld around the entire patch...

I know I know...still some shoddy weld work! But I realised I hadn't set up the wire feed on the welder correctly so it wasn't feeding the wire smoothly. Basically the wire reel was getting snagged so the wire was being fed erratically making it really tricky to weld neatly...honest!!! I fixed it so the last few welds worked fine. I'm getting better - nearly ready to fit the wheel arch flares on!

The whole job is given a coat of Primer to keep the rust off. I'll grind the welds off and clean it all up after I've fitted the Trunk Floor which is the next job.
