Re: My 78 K15 High Sierra build - Fish Tremble

Thanks Chris. Didn't plan on a square body being my first full build, just how things worked out. I had 2 K10's early in my adult life, a 73 and a 77. When I picked up this 78 as a "donor" I decided to heck with that - I like this body style and want another one - so given title issues with the 59 and this one ready to jump on, I jumped on it. Just was clueless about how long this one would take

Anyway, a little behind schedule and about to run out of my time off. Just finished putting primer back on the areas of the roof that I needed to fix. First pic is the driver side door edge, then a pic of my new little buddies, then a done shot. I also did the passenger side, patched a spot in my rocker that I'd missed first round, and fixed the dings in the middle of my roof. The stud welder and stud lever worked like a charm, even for a first time user.

Now I need to wheel the truck bed out into the drive and start sand blasting - OH JOY. I can't think of one single chore that I dislike more!
