The new front structure isn’t only tack welded and I’m wondering if it will pull a little here and there as it gets finish welded. If it moves a little, I may have messed up if I already had holes in the clam corners and they were then in the wrong spot. So odd can the clam and out came the welder….then I ran out of mig wire.
I have always scratched my head about the spider corners where they meet the door corner and clam. The car was shipped with an aluminum spacer in the corner of the spider. Most other cars I look at, their spider is much thicker in the corners. Thoughts? I’m thinking I have to split the lip of the lower spider and widen it. Without the spacers, the spider cornered are way too low!
