find out where the factory joins are and do the rejoining there

i think cutting and rewelding the pillar on an angle gives it more strength than just cutting straight across.....pretty sure thats what trade school said

you can see the front join in the photo. the rear one is in line with the gutter.

just put the roof skin on don't cut the hole thing off.
