You seem very talented from following your El Camino and this project. :thumbsup:
The video was very well done and I think you showed both your abilities and your professional demeanor and I hope you get the spot with Power Nation! :cool:
Thankyou! It would be amazing to get a spot, but I'd be geeked to just go for an interview and see the tech center.
Lots of work to be done, but first a selfie

Then on to drip rail delete, I first cut the drip rail into sections, then removed every other section and welded em

This keeps the roof skin from "springing" or warping
Then it was a matter of tack welding and moving to keep a lot of heat from building up and warping the metal..
Once it was all welded, I just hit it with the grinder

Roof needs to be quarterd and cuts need to be cleaned up (as they were done with only a saws all...)
But so far so good.
Not too bad looking. Thats about the max id go if it were my own
