My welding guy let me down today, I was hopeful of making Dubs, but thats blown that I think.

So back to my request.

I have a 69 Squareback that needs some welding work done.

Im in Moorooka, South Side Brisbane
If you or if you know someone who might come around a have a look and may even do the work, then please drop me a note and we can sort something out.

Thanks all.

steel or alloy ?
and do you have a welder?

Gibbo · 14 Jan 2005, 8:08 pm

steel, I dont have my own kit, or I would have a crack myself.

I just missed out on a very decent starter setup a while back that was going for 350, gutted.
