Replacing Rocker Panels - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*72longbed* · 06-18-2003, 09:15 PM

Hello,
this is my first communication with you fellow 67-72 Chevy truck owners and I'm glad that I found this site. From what I have read today, there are alot of very knowledgable members here and I have been looking for this type of forum for a long time. I have to replace the passenger side rocker panel on my 72 C-20. I picked up a 'GoodMark' outer and inner at the Carlisle show this past weekend. Although I have done all of the mechanical work on my truck, I am not a body man. Someone else did the paint and prep on the truck. My question is: can anyone refer me to a good step by step article or write up or whatever that explains in detail specific to the 67-72 how to remove and replace the entire front and back panel? Where to start, remove the door or not, etc,etc......

Thank you for whatever help you can offer!!

Mike, I'm out here in Gilbertsville, PA. I have not been able to figure out how to list the features of my 72 C-20 yet. I think I have been blocked from the Custom Profile feature???
