    Bad A pillar

     



    Can anyone tell how to repair a broken a pillar in a 40 Chevy coupe the best way? I noticed it was broke on the drivers side. Can it just be welded in place with out damage to anything or what. Or is it a big project?Thanks!

    With out seeing it I don't know. But if you can get at it with out damaging anything else I would grind the crack open and down,making a gruve. then weld it back in grind and refinish. I'm sure others will chime in here.
