Reply to "Stress cracks"

pittcrewOwner etc. of 3785

I would also like to see some pics of the reinforcements welded in the weak areas
I did a search in the BB on this topic some time ago and found several discussions on this matter but no pics. I talked to Dennis Quella about this topic also and he said the windshield post, the rear roof and the tail light area are the areas that usually have problems. I am in the process of stripping my car to bare metal and want to reinforce these areas. My car was made out of bondo so there are cracks everywhere. I plan on welding all the seams but would like to know if there are some plates that need to be made. I will not be running a roll cage in my car. I can barely fit in it as is.
