Re: Using metal glue
This is the 2 pack glue I used as a trial.

Using metal glue
Has anybody used a metal glue instead of welding?
I’m thinking of using a 2 pack metal glue to join lower door repair panel rather than weld it.

Many thanks

Anyway pleased to report Clarence ...

Re: Really?
Well,
my wife has told me to get my rear end into the garage and dont come out till my Clarence 62 saloon is finished and on Ebay for similiar amount
She is now searching catalogues to spend the unexpected windfall that selling of a MM brings.
