Re: Skidmore '67 C20
Okay, then I moved (slowly) onto the kick panel. the patch really didn't want to fit. It had a poor overall shape, flange width, and didn't match the floor patch or the existing cab... It had a 1/2" gap between the floor and the rocker upon my first test fit, and stuck out past the firewall seam.
After many hours of thinking, and a few minutes of judicious relief cuts and an hour of welding, I was able to get it to fit the correct shape. I even broke out the tig to weld up the relief cuts. In the end, it fit up really well. It will be covered, but it could be body worked to be a finished surface.
