Scored a 30k mile wrecking yard trans from a 2010 truck:
More progress on patching up the passenger's side.
Rocker and floor test fit:
Sectioning out the rot in hinge pillar:
New pieces made
Welded in
And all blended
Last thing I did tonight was start fitting my replacement kick panel. These repo ones are thicker than the originals, and I am happy for that. The curve at the bottom of the pillar leaves something to be desired, but there is enough metal to bend it into a better fit so I am reasonably satisfied
