Re: Project: "ResuWrecktion" '71 Custom Deluxe C-10

Time for an update, seems like for as much as I've put into the patch panel repairs the progress is slow.

Installed the final, right rear cab support and began cutting out the right side rocker and other rusted metal.




Piles of rust laying on the bottom of the A pillar after I cut the rocker panel out.




Not a lot left of the rear floor and cab corner..



Old rocker and pieces of rusted metal, slowly trimming out the cancer.




Ordered some front fender reinforcing tabs from GMC Pauls. Thanks to the guys here on the forum for recommending him. Quick shipping and good prices, these are hopefully the final patch pieces I will need for the cab.



Slowly cutting out the rocker and exposing the lower A pillar, pretty rough shape. Already have the patch panel for it though.







The bottom of the B pillar is gone, have a new patch on hand also.



Kick panel wasted.




Finally got the outer floor patch panel in and almost completely welded, still have a bunch of grinding to do but it's getting there.




Tacked the lower B pillar patch in place, I went ahead and sliced it before I tacked it in because I knew it would need some tweaking. So I have more tacking and grinding to do still but that's the way it goes.
