    Hi had my grand prix for almost a year paid about 2000 for it. Its a 1999 gt with the gold trim and rims fully loaded. Cars been good to me but living in southern Ontario and be an being a addicted to snowboarding didn't make for the greatest winter to the car and I neglected to undercoat. So anyways now I'm starting to have some small rust problems just starting to show without having to look for it . Which I'm taking care of But the big problem which I need some knowledge on is the that my rear strut mounts are rusting though the sheet metal its welded to I hear a common problem in these car's. Anyways some might argue its not worth fixing but I took it to mechanic and he think's is worth it to put the money into the car. So I bought myself a Lincoln 180 mig (I have some minor welding experience far from professional) instead of paying somebody else to do it and give myself some experience. So my main question on that front is will I have to take apart the entire brake assembly/Drain brakes lines all that? after I remove the strut tower. Also is there anything to watch for when when welding? ...etc... fuel lines anything that can burn

    Anyways any help would be greatly aspirated
    looks like a great site I'll probably be using quite often as I love this cars and I hate to have to pay a mechanic when I feel like I could fix something myself
