Re: 85 GMC Sierra Classic 1 Ton Crew Cab

Things are moving pretty slow. I did pick up a 86 reg cab long bed frame that had the correct core/front spring mounts for this truck so I am going to be swaping out the brackets at some point so that I can use all the same bushings.

I started on rust repair. The rockers where rusty in only some places, When I cut them open I saw some surface rust, but I sprayed a rust converter on them to keep it from going any farther.



Patched the passenger front rocker


Just need to finish patching the rust. Fill in some holes in the cab for moldings, grind it all down, power wash one more time, paint the bottom/firewall black, and then start doing the body work on the rest of the cab. Once it is in primer I am going to be getting everything else in primer and then start the real body work on everything.

Plan was to get it done by summer, but things keep popping up so we will just see. No real dead line, Just hope to get it done at some point, I already have plans for my rusted out crew cab cab, mud/rock truck
