Removing fuse box / panel 1981 C20

[Grumpus Monkus]

I searched google and used the search function on this site before posting this question (maybe I haven't worded it correctly) but how do you take the fuse panel out?

I have removed three bolts so far. 2 in the cab and on in the engine side of the panel, I have tried to pull it a part but am hesitant to use too much force.

I have the engine compartment just about gutted and would like to see about cleaning compartment side of the panel up and running some new wires where the existing wires are melted or are in disrepair.

Thanks in advance and I'll keep looking for directions.
