911s can have really UGLY personalities

There are somewhat over 100 spot welds on an inner rocker. So, on the assembly line, if Hans was having a bad day (I'm not having a real stellar one myself), he just might punch a few more here and there and overlap a few. There's no clean way to handle a bunch of overlapped welds.

I just took off the other side, outer rocker/sill (remember, the early cars have this welded on, too, not bolt on like '74>, so add another 80 or so) and the inner rocker. I nearly mutilated the surrounding areas getting the last of that POS off. Hans was having a positively bad day on his side of the car when this sucker went down the line.

(No pics today, folks, things is ugly.)

Tell us about your spot weld story and make me feel better.
