Re: The English are coming! Or..another C10 in the Motherland.

Jim, Would appreciate you view on this.

After a lot of bumping the ‘new’ section does not fit, indicating that the inner panel is still twisted somewhere.





So. This is my thought on repairing.

I have the B pillar from Martins truck. Unfortunately the bottom is corroded beyond repair below the first captive nut.




Therefore this is my plan.

Cut the panel along the blue line.



Use the original lower part of the B panel to repair the replacement.



Weld the new panel back in.



I am making the cut at this height as it is where the final bit of damage ends

Does that make sense? Or how would you approach this repair.

Again, advice welcome.
