I am (among other things) installing new floors, rear bulkhead, bulkhead
strenghteners and floor strengtheners on a '59 Bugeye.
My question to the list is, "Do I tackweld the boltheads and nuts that are
installed on the floor and bulkhead strengtheners so that they don't loosen, or
does this affect the heat-treatment of the bolt and weaken the bolt?" I am
using grade 8 bolts and nuts.
Happy Holidays to all,
Gary Bouffard
P.S. I have just become a first time grandfather, guess what his first toy
car will be?
