I have to have a closer look but i think the welds are cold gal. Im considering giving the frame a coat of por 15 first.

I went to the paint shop today and they recommended sikaflex for the job. I got a tube of sikaflex and a litre of polyester resin the sikaflex is the one they (sika) recommend for installing body kits. With the bars glued and then the whole thing enclosed with fibrglass it will be easily strong enough.

My only concern is the bond strength of the resin / sikaflex to por15, then the por15 to glavanized steel. The local Por 15 man told me i have a 90% chance of it sticking ok to gal when i had a conversation previously with him about Por15 on my gal chassis.
