Cool ... the shrouds were TIG-welded, hand-finished with no filler required. 
Pretty advanced stuff for the time, methinks.

shroud welding etc, you will get plenty of info. 
One material recommended is 0.063 inch thick 6061-T6 alloy for the shrouds, 
some have tig and some gas welded, everyone will have an opinion.
