Lost Highway Petro Enthusiast Registered: Tue Jan 11 2011 Loc: Greenville SC	My 76 top has a hairline so ill get some practice on it. I can't wait for summer to be over and be back at school. Jb weld is just masking the problem though. If you deposit enough metal while welding the grind flush it should hold and not just be masked Edited by Lost Highway (Mon Jul 02 2012 12:42 AM) _________________________ Kyle DeKoning
