Re: Angie - 71 GMC C25

Picked back up on the roof. This structural piece over the door is a real pain to remove. Spent the better part of this afternoon on it. I don't think I am going to use the whole patch. Just square up my cuts at the bottom. Felt like I needed to go this length because I also had to deal with the inner roof edge rust. What I've cut takes care of that too.

I plan to fab my own patch for the inner roof edge. Then its more blasting of the newly exposed area and primer for the whole inner roof. I will do the same repairs on the other side before I do blast & primer.

Oh, and started buying new exhaust starting with some manifolds. Some PO thought that welding the pipes to the header was a good idea. Maybe it was... but I don't like it.
