First WELCOME--to the list.... Got a great bunch of folks always willing
to help.. Welding--be carefull not get it to hot to prevent warpage,
would be best then grind smooth and continue. If ya wanna use bondo, i'd
drill a small hole at the end of the crack, so it won't continue any
further-apply and smooth. With bondo the slamming of the hood may crack it
after time... Depends on how long the cracks are really.. Great --wayne
