Just curious.. How did you get the tops of the strut towers to look so perfect and hide the spot welds?

Re: freshly painted engine bay, frame rails and wheel wells

countless hours of body work, when i get home i can post some pics of the work underneath the paint. i tried to make the engine bay "smooth" without getting to out of control, most of what i did is subtle, if you didnt know these cars you would think it came factory this way. the corners of the rad support have been smoothed and rounded, welded up every hole that i didnt need, smoothed the frame rails, removed all the factory seam sealer and redid it to look a lot neater.
