Re: My 1970 GMC Project

I got the lower pillar patch welded in for the most part. I had to splice the outer edge and expand it 5/16" to line up with the existing panel and make the curve to follow the rocker panel. I ended up having to cut the lip that accepts the cab corner off and run it through my dad's shrinking die to get it to have the curve as well. This is what I was unable to do on the passenger side as I did not catch this until the cab corner was welded in. It isn't nessacary but it will make my cab corner install go better. I did not have time to get the corrected lip welded back on but once I do, I will be ready for cab corner and rocker. Second side is going much quicker than the first.
