My '75 (the Bat Mobile) has been sitting idle in my shop with the drive train out for a few weeks now.

Prior to installing the new 2056 that Richard built for it (sitting at the right in above pic), I wanted to clean up the engine compartment.


As I was removing the old sealing rubbers, I remembered that some repairs were needed (the car had A/C at one time and the dealer hacked up the passenger side engine shelf).

I just acquired a new engine shelf, battery tray and support and am looking for a mobile welding guy (with 914 experience) to cut out the old, weld in the new and a make a couple of patches on the firewall.

Prefer someone close to the South Bay area ... any recommendations? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

Call this guy. Joe George. 818 416 2232. He came to my house way back when I first got he car and spent six hours cutting our rusted metal. He would cut out a new piece with an angle grinder and butt weld the new piece in place. He is an ablsolute wizard with oxy-acetyline. Give him a call. Joe lives in the valley but came all the way down to Orange County to work on my car. He carries everything he needs with him in his truck.
Cheers, Elliot
