But, we all know what "assume" means.


Fk knows what i did to include all the pictures in my reply. Im new here >_< haha! Was looking through some of the pictures and christ almighty some of the welds dont look the best and some are porous. If i went into work tomorrow morning and welded like that, i probably wouldnt have a job to go back to in the new year lol. Very good welder doesn't stand for nout if youre not certified or if you can run a straight bead. Just saying.

If the car has been driven moderately should be ok, but doubtful..... Make an ass out of u and me assume lol

Digging up a ten year old thread to trash talk someone's work just makes you look like a bell end. All I see in the pictures is a lot of tack welds, that Steve is saying got finished properly.
