June 2022

Trimmed and welded the passenger door edges. Worked on roof oil can fixing Video link. Robert McCartney (MPandC) was nice enough to advise me via facetime call on the proper shrinking procedure to take care of that. He showed me where to shrink the metal to get it back into shape and suggested how to raise the roof overall. Thanks Robert!

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
