Following on from seam welding the b-post repair in place i have ground the welds smooth trying not to grin too far and cut through. There are a few pin holes, but i think this is due to low penetration from the welds rather than over-grinding.
A lot of grinding with the flap wheel later and a coat of primer shows the two or three small holes the need welding, these should get done in the next day or so. There seems to be a little overlap are the arch end which wasn't evident until the primer was on. I'm hoping i can smooth this out with the grinder and build up with weld if needed. Else it will be a filler job when prepping for paint.
Looking back a year or so to an old photo is often a real encouragement. Look at the state of the b-post and bulkhead!
I'm often working on the car in the evenings after work now that there is more daylight, but once it passes half seven-ish i don't want to make much noise, so i have started to work on things like the rear axle.
