We weld the quarter panel to rocker panel seams solid on our 1971 Camaro project giving the car a smooth look.

We begin by removing the surface rust that has developed from sitting. We use a combination of a wire wheel and black hawk strip discs to do this.

Next we weld the each seam solid by tack welding until we have filled the entire seam. Using tack welds helps to keep distortion to a minimum. You can avoid burn-through by starting the bead on the rocker panel and then moving it over to the quarter panel. This is because the rocker panel has a bend.

We then grind the welds down smooth using a combination of the cut off wheel, a 36 grit roloc disc and a 120 grit flap disc on the grinder.

Last we hit the welds with a thin coat of fiberglass filler to fill any remaining pin holes. Then we throw on a coat of paint to prevent future surface rust.
