    Great work on the rust repairs Jarred.
    Very tidy.
    Can I ask how you learnt to weld?
    I'm rebuilding a 74 beetle and will hopefully be attacking some rusted panels myself.

    yea, definitely a good idea.
    I've done a few other bits and pieces (random projects) that involved welding to help get some practice.

    Your car is called Walter and the compressor tank is called Frank. Please tell me you haven't named the septic system............

    I don't live in the country Paul, I do have running water and services

    besides, if your air compressor had a tank that big, you'd be calling it Frank too! haha

    I've got running water, it's raining right now and I can hear it running. Sorry, couldn't resist.

    Yes, I am envious of Frank. Yours is much bigger than mine.
