PS, the good news is I doubt the heat from welding warped the housing!!!!!:LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:

well i did remove what i said to you. it was not good .if you think this was funny i did not . i think you were aiming for me .not to cool .i have welded of over 30 years i do still weld for a living my welds on the headers i build are better then some welds that guys play bet your life on . anyone that knows me .knows i can weld with the best of them .and build and machine engine with the best of them and paint and do body work as good as any one . and build headers any of the work i do i take great pride in my work and my name ..i am not by far some half ass .. you have not made a new friend
pat i was just kidding. i have seen your headers and know you weld very well thats why i was just messing with you.. i'm sorry if i pissed you off i was only having some fun!!!! i thought you get a kick out off the video and have a good time with it......again i'm sorry
What was the driver saying,,,1.dang,I always got good weld penetration on sheetmetal
2.ooopps,,,stupid duct tape and bondo
3.wellll,sure the perches were rust rotted,,,but NOT THAT BAD 4.He told me the slicks wouldn't make much of A difference 5.what the snot did he pour in front of my tires anyhow?
6.OR,,,"IF IT WERE'NT FOR BAD LUCK I'D HAVE NOT LUCK AT ALL,,,GLOOM,DESPAIR,AND AGONY ON ME."

I took the original post as a fun thing not a real attack on you pat. I wish my welds were better. Rick keeps assuring me that they'er ok, I still think I'll have him do the test driving though :D seriously, I was welding up some holes in a bracket we're modifying last night, was using the big welder for the real stuff then thought I'd fill with the little wire feed since it is setup with .25 wire. Yeah, forgot to turn the gas on. couldn't figure at first why my weld sucked all of a sudden. :0

OK,,,I don't get it??? Have always respected Pat's posts and his vast experience.SOMETIMES,,,,internet posting makes us feel like 'old buddies' and we may get 'casual' in our remarks and say things that we assume the other person understands our thinking/reasoning and we over assume.Thats internet posting for you.
That wasn't Pat getting out of that car after doing the welding then,,,maybe it was presuming a jokeing that would come across as an innocent friendly jestering??? I don't know,,,,but I think we have all done similiar,to some degree,,,since learning to do computer website posting after remarking/commenting with buddies in a garage/shop setting.
Maybe?
And by the way,,,,that video shows a mishap that could happen for many reasons,even with 'perfect' welds with a 4-link or homemade suspension components ,everyone knows that.
How long can we beat a dead horse????????????? Caddy poked some fun, I saw it for just what it was. I'm sorry it didn't turn out like Caddy wanted. He apologised and I think he and Pat will smooth it out. NOW, leave it be. I've already sent the video to many friends and I did not forward anything about the joking part. C'mon guys, let's learn from humor and good hearted fun. And sometimes be a bit more tactful, but not beat the dead horse more than you need to.
Are you kidding? On this site I've seen (and contributed to) the dead horse gettin' beat, shot, drug around on a chain, then hung, burned and then the real beatin' begins! :LOL:
Pat you are well established here. Everybody respects you and your skills. Heck I bet ol' caddy even thinks twice before gettin' funny with you next time. :D All the best ......... :)

Aaaaaaahahaha that sux
dennyw you know peta will looking for you know... i guess i should have said denny or dave welded it o-well live and learn i guess...
Last time I saw something like that was about 6 years ago at the GoodGuys Charlotte event. A guy driving a 69 GTO lost his whole rear end while driving the track. Not much damage to the car, a lot of damage to the ego.:LOL: :LOL:
Dennyw, I wouldn't worry about PETA, after all we all know that it stands for People Eating Tasty Animals!!!!Quote:
