I just got this out of the garage last week. I put it in pictures but thought I would post it here also. You guys with a 73-87's know what I did well. New rockers inner&outer,cab corners,floors,cab mounts,doors and inner&outer fenders. Plus a little rust repair to the front of the hood. It cost about $600 bucks for all my materials including paint.


RUST I HATE IT!!! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

the hood isn't bent! Was it never bent or did you "adjust" it back to unbentness?

No 0 left off $600 about what I spent on the cab, and about $300 on the bed. I guess I wasn't thinking about the bed :crazy:I didn't take any before pics. I wish I had.

cliffsta:
No the hood hasn't ever been bent. When I put back together I lubed the hinges>it shuts great!

Thanks guys!
Here are a few more before the bed rebuild.

Better stick it back in the garage right now until spring if you want it to stay that nice!
