Any recommendations for books/websites on modifying bodyshells?
Lots of people go on about seam welding but I've also heard that this can be a bad thing in the wrong place. A spot welded joint allows some flex and seam welding it will transfer the stress to other parts of the shell. I'm looking for proper info not the pub talk as I want to do it right. As pretty much every part of the Datsun is rotten I'll have plenty to practice on.
Wouldn't mind finding out about gusseting although I may be dissapointed when I find out it isn't some strange fetish.
