Re: 1971 GMC Donald

I stitch welded the trailing arm seams (can't get those pictures to work for some odd reason), removed the spare tire carrier brace, emergency brake bracket, found a replacement control arm and then got into my favorite part, bodywork...

Luckily a good friend of mine (who has quite a few builds under his belt) helped me out with this and made the process go a little smoother. New driver's side section of floor along with a few small patches, the cab corners, and replacement of the nearly missing rockers took seemingly forever. It was a learning process for meI am very thankful that for whatever reason I have always loved the patina look, even back in the 80s when it wasn't cool!
