Kawasaki tank 3

Finally was making some progress 
Got the large dents out and was using the slapper with a dolly behind. Got the shape back into the tank  and was up to the deep dent at the front. As you can see from the picture it was really deep and sharp, no amount of ice is going to shift that. It will take a lot of force from a puller to move it
My plan was to get the dents out , welded the holes , then fill the small indentations with the Mig welder  before sanding lightly , as there is not much metal to play with, to get smooth.

Unfortunately, I will never know , the customer suddenly wanted the tank back.  Half completed.

One must do what the customer wants.

I think I have only been told half of the story behind this tank .

Oh well let's move on

and the customer wanted it back,,,,,,
                  weld pull, grind 

Ice got it here 

shaping the line

you can see the amount of weld and pull I had to do 

getting there
