I'm sure Will, Chip, Dave, Aaron, or Stenger will join in to give you a pointer or 2.

You gonna have a little rust thrown in there with it?

JP_Extreme · 11-19-2009, 10:30 AM

I've been wanting to shave the back without paying to get it patched with a weld job. Everyone that I have asked about it they all want ~ $1,500 just to put a patch on it.
