LARRY LISTED THESE
I have listed a number of links below to what I know is the automotive industry information and training leader.
I-CAR (Inter -Industry Conference on Auto Collision Repair) has some very pertinent welding ( as well as other repair/refinishing )information posted on line that should be very helpful to those wanting to learn .
This link is to training videos and pdfs for I-CARs welding certification class. Please review if your unsure of the proper welding techniques or have not welded before .
http://www.i-car.com/html_pages/training_programs/downloads.shtml
This UPCR link page lists the proper steps for the welding/repair process. You'll need to browse through the listing and select the appropriate link.
The important ones are listed in the welding, corrosion protection ,structural parts and adhesive bonding. Below is the link to this page.
http://www.i-car.com/html_pages/technical_information/upcr.shtml
This next link has to do with properly restoring the corrosion protection on replacement metal panels. This should be done on any welded/bonded in panel.
http://www.i-car.com/html_pages/tec.../advantage_online_archives/2004/031504a.shtml
I've added this link for those that believe the original welds in the rail extensions and floor pan are insufficient. This is one of the many ways the OEMs are getting the strength and torsional rigidity improvements in todays new cars. This is probably the best way to increase the strength in a spot welded hat channel and can easily be applied to the Z cars.

Dont be afraid to browse this site. There is a lot of great info .
When welding remember just like in painting preparation,cleanlinessand practice are the most important step to a great outcome. Theres and old shop saying about welding, "If you dont weld so good weld more often."
There are other sites that list welding info . I used ICAR because it gives the best info for the application.
Now start welding .
