Ron Fournier opens his workshop doors to reveal the metal fabricating methods he perfected through decades of building race cars. From Indy 500 competitors to drag strip rockets, from stock cars to show stoppers, Fournier has shaped metal for every type of high performance vehicle. His handbook walks readers through MIG welding, TIG welding, arc welding, and gas welding techniques. The book covers fuel tank construction, oil tank fabrication, and exhaust header building. Fournier demonstrates the skills that earned him recognition when this guide won the Moto Award for Best Technical How-to Book. Each technique reflects real world experience gained in professional racing shops where precision and reliability matter most.
