- This time we see how gasless mig wire works out for welding on the front bubble arch
Throughout the project we will build tools to help us along the way, the custom tools we build, we will upload our how-to videos

Have used gasless mig for over 20yrs, never had a problem , even used it in my own engineering business and others, never had an issue, from ford pop chassis to carbide insert lathe tools, ..
Dave I suspect you could paint the whole car inside and out with a horsehair brush that was still attached to the horse and you'd make it come out nicely! Another great video, very enjoyable thanks.
Great tips Dave on the fluxcore wire, you're def saving $ without gas. Really enjoy yours and Fitzee's channel. Let's see if Tony mpoves to the fluxcore option. Cheers
Another masterclass Dave. For guys with basic tools and limited space you’re an inspiration.
Hi Dave, enjoyed the video, I like the fact you have butt welded the arch on, a proper job in my opinion. I do have a couple suggestions of things that might help you next time. The welding distortion would be much less if you kept it cooler, only one tack between an inch of material at a time. Just keep tacking until it's fully welded and cool with air between sets of tacks, a longer process perhaps but it will save more time in panel beating and filler work before painting. Glad you went round and fixed all the porous holes, far too many for my liking. I appreciate you showing everything and your thoughts, it's good watching, keep it up.
I love using gasless wire. I have gas too, but the ease of use with flux core I just can’t pass up 😂
that is a fantastic job Gave , how this channel dont have 100k plus subs i dont know !!
Hello Dave on the strength of your video I am now making the switch to flux core!! As I am so tired of running out of gas at the most inconvenient times! Keep up the great work!
Great episode, Dave, I really enjoyed it.
Love the work so far ❤
Nice job Dave, look forward to the other side :)
God Jesus Christ bless you David... Great work thanks
Tip top work as usual Dave :)
Nice work ,well done.
Brilliant what a great job you made of that
Another great video 🙂🙂
Great work & video as always Dave, think I will get involved in this 👍🏻
Did the same to my Mexico back in the mid 70s except used gas welding, enjoyed the video
I use an air saw with a 32 saw blade for the cut/butt part, it's cleaner and more accurate and leaves the correct welding gap
great job dave
