Re: Roostre's 1967 C20
I was able to get some work done on my truck tonight. My core support is rotted out under the battery tray, especially the bracket that holds the inner fender. I ended up cutting it out and using my harbor freight brake to bend up a patch. I used 22 guage steel because that's what I had laying around. It should be just fine. I ran out of ambition before I got the patch welded in. This gives me time to decide if I want to make another patch for the bottom of the core support that is bent for my new patch to weld to. It's pretty thin there.
Pictures are what I started with, my patch, and where I stopped tonight.
