Re: todd68chevy

Went and spent the weekend with my buddy in Michigan and fit in some project work time while I was there. With the stretching, where the front half and back half meet are not the same width. The roof part of the door jamp has already been modified and this weekend we worked on the bottom of the door jam. I removed the seat riser and split the rear section so it could be widened. He reangled the front piece and welded them together. That got the door frame right. Then we cut the inner part on the floor and made the rail for the center panel line up straight. I cut filler panels and he started welding them back in. I also removed a rusted section in front of the floor board so it could be replaced with a better panel I had removed from another cab. Not a lot of progress but at least we got some work done on it after not working on it for a while. The next trip up I am going to take the frame and dog house parts so we can get it remounted before cutting the door and making them fit. We want it bolted to the frame incase we are not straight right now. Hope to post more sooner than the time it took to get this done.
