I think ATF is basically just a light weight (SAE 5 or 0?) oil. It makes a good basis for gun oil. But I don't know of any reason that it would be better than any other motor oil for automotive anti

aluminum behaves in the same general way as steel, only faster. (how's that for a generalization?) it bends, stretches and can be shrunk by the same basic techniques. see the Tin Man, Kent White's, v

While 6061-T6 alloy is very weldable it has some characteristics that would make me hesitant to use it to repair a Healey shroud. Its use in aircraft is due to these same characteristics. The article
