I think it should be butt welded anyway as the car's finished color is going to be dark, and I don't want it to show through. Can you guys steer me in the right direction about doing this? What gauge metal should I be using(It's an early 70s British car)? What's the best way to handle rust prevention? Thanks for any advice. John
