Re: 69 K10 From the Field

Had a few side projects to get wrapped up on Saturday morning. I had purchased a LS motor a couple of months ago and needed a stand for storage so I built a set from some 1x2 thick wall tubing and some 1/4" plate. Also bought another K20 a few days ago it is a 68 GMC long bed stepside. The drivers side step and bottom front corner of fender have been crushed in at some point. Trying to find a used one for a long bed stepside is difficult, so I decide to give it a shot a trying to fix. This is where I got after about 2 hours working on the step and fender. Used map gas on a small torch and two different body hammers along with an assortment of dollies. Pretty surprised what I was able to pound out and will still have a challenge to get the small body seam that goes around the entire wheel well. The step will also need a little more work fabricating the back part that wraps around the fender, that small piece was not fixable. I will need to make a reverse template off the passenger side step in order to fabricate the part.
