Little update. I started working on the cab floor today at lunch. Back when i was 14 my dad and I fiberglassed a small hole (was like the size of a quarter...) I removed the fiberglass today so it can be repaired with metal before paint. As you can see it has grown over the last 15 years...
Still this and the same spot on the driver are the only rust on the truck. So not bad! |
Re: 1981_c10 Step-Side
Tomorrow at lunch I will do the driver side.
Any recommendations on best way to repair. In a tight spot. |

Re: 1981_c10 Step-Side
Talked with my body guy and will be ordering a patch panel for the passenger side and patching the driver in a few small areas.
I take him my truck this weekend! also, need to call USA1 about their full interior kit. Any one order that and liked it? Seems like a good deal for the price. |

Re: 1981_c10 Step-Side
Small update: painter bought all the body and paint material and should be starting today/tomorrow on the bed. Taking my cab and such to him Wednesday.
Also, going to order the USA1 interior kit this week! The wait begins... |
Re: 1981_c10 Step-Side
Spent 3 hours with red scotchbrite, dish soap and water sanding the inside of the cab to prep for the body guy. Will do another round today/this week. What a tedious process.
Also went to summit yesterday and purchased the front bed panel for the stepside. They gave me the more expensive made in the USA panel for the price of the made in Taiwan panel. So was happy about that. Way heavier metal. Going to look at used stock hood today from a guy and maybe a few other odds and ends. excited to start making some big progress. |

Re: 1981_c10 Step-Side
Truck officially got some paint on it friday. Did the gaps between the bed panels. I tried uploading pics but it didnt work. I am headed up there next monday to help out. Hopefully the bed will be pretty far then and i will take some pictures.
I also ordered the hidden latch kit we need to install. We are welding up all the unused holes in the bed too so should look clean. Lastly, started getting some of my USA1 interior. Got lower carpet panels, paint, misc screws/fasterners, and inside window cranks and door latches. Swap meet at TMS is in a couple week and hope to pick a few more things up. Also picked up a stock hood. |

Re: 1981_c10 Step-Side
Well, the texas snow storm again delayed my cab getting to the painter. Hoping not this weekend but next weekend I can get it over there...
Anybody going to Pates Swap Meet next weekend? I knw LST is the same weekend. |
Re: 1981_c10 Step-Side
Well that's a bummer. Hope all is well down there in Texas. Seems that Texas is getting the raw end of the deal, and from all sides.
