Hi all, from what I understand, the longs are double thickness? Is it the same all the way through the car, as in the top, bottom, and sides of them? Just trying to understand how these cars are built. Photos would really help. Thanks!

Another thing worth mentioning is that for repairs you make the largest hole on the outer layers, outer meaning farthest from the center of the structure member being fixed, then you make a smaller removal for the next layer and so on. Then you make repairs one layer at a time. You need to do this for access. |
