Whatchoo mean? Like body panels welded in? or all your body seams? Whatever it is, it sounds expensive.

stitch welding is getting the seam welded every 4 to 6 inches with a 1-2" weld usually.
there are many variations.
seam welding generally does the entire seam length and it has the possibilty of warping body panels if not done right. |

Its so time costly that I bet most places won't do it. Takes alot of time man, better off buying a welder and doing it urself. |

this is an example of stitch wedling.
welding the weak points(seams) to stop chassis flex.

That was what I thought but I wasn't sure it was common practise in the race world. Cool!
