Re: 49 GMC Five Window

Some progress. The to-do list is down to one page. Sitting in urethane primer sanded to 400 grit. GMC grill surround is still in Featherfill and needs more work.



The front sheet metal is all aligned (little adjustment needed on passenger side - I'd started taking the front surround off to work on it when I took the photo)



We were afraid that there wasn't enough support for the bear claw pin on the B-pillar so I made a plate out of 304 stainless to spread the load. Surface is brushed and covered with tape to protect it



Needed access to the clutch master and brake master from the cab. Made some floor reinforcement with some scrap sheet metal and the stretcher and plug welded them into the floor pan. Made the covers on the bead roller and fastened them to the floor with a quarter turn Dzus fasteners.



Still trying to get to the paint shop by the end of March
