Re: 72 C10 4X4 LWB, Put Back Together

Patch panels arrived today, now I get to try my hand at cutting, and welding.

Last couple of days spent prepping, spraying POR-15 on front radiator support, lower fenders. Really impressed with how hard the POR-15 gets, still learning how to apply properly. Found spraying a light coat of POR-15 waiting a hour, then touching up any place where it was not coated completely, with a brush. Then spraying another heavy coat worked the best for me. Not sure if this is the best way or not, but seemed to work for me. Tops of fenders will be body color. Bottom of hood, and hinges will get the POR-15 treatment.

Found some slight surface rust under front windshield seal, will remove, and spray with epoxy primer, before painting cab.

Any advice on how to unbend/remove the old lower door door skin??? Thinking of trying a chisel/hammer, but open to any suggestions.
