Reply to "Restoring ’71 Pre-L"

So, I set off to strip the body work down and melt off the lead (while wearing a resp. mask) and strengthen the seams.  After removing the lead w/a butane flame (it melts away like candle wax and becomes brittle) I welded the seam(s) up as best I could.  0BB9E519-E5EE-4893-A8DB-FD9DEE53D912A1813CDA-90D0-45AD-9B1D-7A5F95BA01E33B95CD49-EE53-4135-B1F4-AAF5BAC953216D36E9D4-A895-4FEC-A1A6-E2ABA20D7BA6



You can see the depth of the lead.  This particular spot is the C-pillar on the driver’s side.
