Do you have any pictures of the welded sheetmetal seams before ginding them? - I see some Cleco's and looks like a backer piece of metal in some of the pictures - did this backer get welded in with the overlap like that?
I grind the seams as I go (one spot weld at a time) ... this way it minimizes heat while grinding.

That backer piece is just for fitting... I butt-weld all my sheetmetal joints. I just used it to get the front piece fit up.
