[FC] metal work

[wern3 at juno.com]

I am assembling a new gas tank from sheet metal to replace the old tank that failed last weekend on my '61 Rampy after I tried to repair it with fiberglass. The plan is to assemllbe it with spot welds, then seal the seams with lead solder or braze it tight. I once saw (in the late 70's) a crew assembling Impalas at the old Janesville assy. plant. They were using a gas torch and what looked like soft lead sticks smoothed witha spatula to fill body gaps where the roof panel joined the "C" pillar. My experiments with plumbers solder and flux I use for sweating copper water pipes have been a failure on sheet metal, Anyone on here know what combination of flux and solder that man was using on sheet metal??
Thanks
Tim '61 Rampy
