Here are the stickers on the inside of it. I bought it from Classic Industries using there 30% off code. So with $175 shipping and the door at $428 with discount it came out to just over $600.

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"

I got the inside of the Passenger door shot with color today. I haven't shot any color in almost 2 years. I have been working on this door off and on since October of 2016. Nice to finally almost be done.

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"

Today's work. Started early this morning getting chores done around the house and then got the door prepped to spray the Blue. I missed a few very small dents and it orange peeled on mine just a little. But it's an old truck and not a show truck for sure. I thinned the paint a little extra but it still wasn't enough. I will reduce in more on the next round.

20180628_132633 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180628_132628 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Tape and masking pulled. Pretty happy with it. Chubbed as Rian would say.

20180628_152315 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180628_152337 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Can't wait to get it mounted on the truck for the last time. Speaking of that. The hinge bolts were not ready so sandblasted and put them in paint this evening.

20180628_160357 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

The passenger front fender will be next in the paint booth. Fixed 3 small places with glazing putty and put another coat of high build on. Will block it out tomorrow after work and see if it is ready for paint. Hopefully get some color on it this weekend and get the inside of it painted as well and reinstall all the inside brackets and rubber pieces.

20180628_164124 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Carefully got the door into it's temporary home for next few days.

20180628_160116 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

These photos popped up from 4 years ago.

Some more updates.

Before.

After. Exactly 4 years apart.

I think my lines are pretty close considering I painted these pieces separately and more than 3 years apart.

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"

So last Thursday I got the Driver vent window rebuilt. What a Pain in the ass that was. My fingertips are all still hurting.

First job was getting these factory style rivets into this metal impregnated seal.

20180705_104427 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

I had to use a drill bit to help guide it in.

20180705_104435 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180705_104441 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Next was fitting the outside seal into its frame. I didn't take any pictures other than this but this is the reason for my fingers hurting. Took a good 30 minutes and some soapy water to get it fully seated.

20180705_113658 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Next was fitting the glass back into its frame using original style rubber cork glass setting tape.

20180705_113839 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Use electrical tape so when you trim it you can't see the tape.

20180705_114450 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Was actually easier than I thought it was going to be.

20180705_114854 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Used an Exacto knife to trim off the excess.

20180705_115633 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180705_115643 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Still need to set the rivet that goes in the window hinge. I want to test fit in the door first to make sure everything lines up.

20180705_121154 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

New vs Old.

20180706_195647 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Front fender parts out of the paint shop and ready to have the rubber assembled on them. I will be using some heavy gauge coated wire instead of staples.

20180706_195734 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Another before/after 4 years apart.

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"

Got all 4 fender brackets done with new rubber and staples installed.

Rubber that goes on top bracket that seals against the cab.

20180707_185250 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Coated wire I used to make staples. Got it at the Hobby Store in the jewelry making section.

20180707_185253 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Handmade staples

20180707_190117 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

First bracket done. I don't like how it bunches in the corner. But that's how the factory did it.

20180707_191000 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180707_191005 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Bottom side

20180707_191011 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Both sides done.

20180707_192339 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Lower splash guards.

20180707_193934 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180707_193941 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Used this small drill bit in my dremel to drill holes through the rubber.

20180707_193944 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180707_193947 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180707_194018 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180707_194005 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180707_194021 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

I made these staples the right width by bending one side putting it in the hole and the using the needle nose pliers bending right in line with the other hole.

20180707_194128 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180707_194321 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

All 4 done. Can check that off my list.

It’s a record of progress

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"

Update.

Tearing down the Passenger vent window so I can rebulid it. I only took one apart at a time that way I can reference the other one if I had trouble putting it back together.

20180708_103555 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

I think this piece of rubber was past its lifetime compared to the new underneath it.

20180708_103633 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Detailed pictures of how all these spacers and washers go back.

20180708_102251 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180708_102237 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Everything but the rubber.

20180708_103911 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Next up taking the door glass out of the channels to rebuild them. I put tape on the ends to line the glass backup and I measured from the top and wrote each side down so I can get the glass back exactly where it goes.

20180708_122618 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180708_122622 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180708_122625 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Knocked the window channel off with a block of wood and rubber mallet. Was pretty easy. Glad I did this. There was a lot of corrosion in the channels and the glass setting tape was completely rotted out.

20180708_122808 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Everything blasted.

20180708_153924 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

I blasted a ton of bolts today too and painted several as well. Still amazed at how many bolts are left to go on the truck.

20180708_153907 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Some more parts in Black paint.

20180708_141111 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Upcoming project and its ingredients.

20180708_104354 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

2 of the dogs sunbathing.

20180708_141027 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Several things knocked off my list.

Couple quick shots I got of the fender installed. Still have to pull it back off and reshoot. Just wanted to get a glance.

20180724_073349 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

The paint laid down really smooth.

Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"

Next up was finishing the Passenger vent window. Made a run to Lowes to get a 5/16 fine thread nut and some nylon washers.

20180727_122302 by bjohnson388, on Flickr


Installed the final rivet on the vent window.

20180727_081010 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180727_081013 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Last piece of rubber/felt to go on vent window.

20180727_130125 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

The driver window is missing this lock tab washer so I made a copy of the passenger one before buttoning all up. Its not pretty but it works.

20180727_125727 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Installing the glass.

20180727_132052 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Rubber felt has the slits for the corner so it doesn't bunch up.

20180727_132059 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180727_132106 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Jeep Cherokee door check. Fits perfectly.

20180727_132116 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

Passenger door is almost completely assembled.

20180727_141951 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

20180727_142000 by bjohnson388, on Flickr

I attempted to install the felt that goes at the bottom of the window but had no luck and broke a tab on one of them. After research I see Precision makes a set with different clips versus the ones that come in their kit. That doesn't make any sense. Disappointed as everything else for the doors worked great. This is Precision brand. I have read to save the original clips but the ones on mine had already been replace and looked just like these. I have read several threads about it. I will either order the different set from Precision or maybe just screw them on like Astronaut did.

The fruits of all my labor. This door shuts factory fresh and sounds amazing. I haven't even put any sound deadening in it yet. I am really stoked and can't wait to get the driver door done. The sound of this door takes me back to being a kid and shutting the door on my Grandpa's 64' Longbed. Click pic for video.
