Nice work, great fit Vt. Nice idea on the inner pc. Do you have to do the floors as well. Tim, I think he got all his parts at Tri-Pro. If you look at the 'A' post patch laying there, I believe it's their insignia, but I could be wrong

Yes on the floors.
Have both sides here already but plan on only using what is needed on each side.
Hope to save as much of the original floor as possible.

Correct, the parts came from Tri-Pro.

Hah, neither do I. It's why Kurt's doing this part of the project.

*FormerMember* · 03-17-2008, 08:15 PM

I am starting to look forward to getting this back and finishing up.

Ordered 120' of DOM tube, which is now sitting under Shuffling.

*lghtng2* · 04-08-2009, 04:12 PM

wow, this be alot of work...

**Yukon Jack** · 02-10-2008, 01:13 AM

Grendel, what color will it be? I sure hope I haven't asked that before

*FormerMember* · 02-10-2008, 11:15 AM

Stock goldish color.

vtblazer · 02-10-2008, 08:51 PM

Welded the nuts on the inside of the cab mount and test fit the 'a' pillar for final fit, installed the inner rocker for final, then test fit the outter.

Chevyman63 · 02-10-2008, 09:38 PM

Well you've done it again. These pics are just what I needed to be inspired enough to actually accomplish something on mine today.

Thanks again and nice work as usual!

vtblazer · 02-25-2008, 06:21 PM

Lower pillar and inner rocker almost done.

Next is to reinstall the door and fit up the outter rocker.

vtblazer · 02-28-2008, 04:15 AM

Outer rocker installed.

The gap between the door and the 'b' pillar would of course be closer in final install but it was straight on the first try so I didn't mess with it.

MN Rooky · 02-28-2008, 08:40 AM

nice work!! Keep the pictures coming.

**Yukon Jack** · 02-28-2008, 07:21 PM

That does look like a great fit. It's coming right along.

jb4short · 04-04-2008, 07:33 PM

nice

vtblazer · 04-05-2008, 09:19 PM

Primed and sealed.

Needs to be blocked out yet but it's progress.

Remeber that 'extra' gas fill hole?

Chevyman63 · 04-05-2008, 09:26 PM

Awesome Dude! Looks good!

More progress is a good thing.

*FormerMember* · 05-12-2008, 06:26 PM

Looking forward to seeing the progress from yesterday.

weeks been crazy...between forgetting to bring the camera to the shop and forgetting to bring it home to down load the pics.

Got a lot checked off the list though.
*Cab support installed
*Inner rocker installed
*Outer rocker fit and ready to go

One piece left to do and it's already rough cut to size and shape so it should go quick.

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 05-12-2008, 07:02 PM

Looking good whats the new completion date?

Eh, Yankee Hospitality does exist, once you get outside of Yuppieville.

I have a pond on my property with good size Bass in it. I am also about 30 minutes to a couple of good spots on the Atlantic for Striper...
