65 GMC Rebuild
 

don't know if I'm doing a good enough job or not but won't let that stop me. here are a few pics of the cab corner I replaced today. The outer rocker isn't installed, just hanging there to check to fit. waiting for inner cowl panels to come from classic parts before I can complete this side.:metal:

Re: cab corner pics
 

here some more pics of progress today. I really liked the inner cowl patch panels and A pillars from Classic Parts, the fit was pretty dang good, if you compensate for my lack of experience in body work.

Looks good to me.......that is a nice part. I see some liquid refreshments were in order after the work, huh?:lol:

Re: 65 GMC Rebuild
 

lol yea that is usually a priority cause I'm usually working on it on my days off.

Re: 65 GMC Rebuild
 

one question, i need to do the same repair on my truck, if i order the full outer rocker panel does it come with that lower a piller portion?

Re: 65 GMC Rebuild
 

AHHHHHH, cheap beer! the cornerstone of any rust repair:alc::alky:

Re: 65 GMC Rebuild
 

no apachedaddy, the lower A pillar patch is available through Classic Parts, I think with shipping I paid 73.00 for both sides together, here is link.http://www.classicparts.com/prodinfo.asp?number=44-217

how did you change the title of this thread, or am I losing my mind?:uhmk:

Re: 65 GMC Rebuild
 

Joe I had to put in a request to Fred to forum moderator to change it, I didn't want to keep cluttering up the forum with a new post everytime I added pics.

Re: 65 GMC Rebuild

Re: 65 GMC Rebuild

Re: 65 GMC Rebuild
 

Well done! Nice technique! I have paid professionals for work that was probably not as well done.

Re: 65 GMC Rebuild
 

I appreciate the compliment billydon, but I'm no professional, just a green horn everything I have done so far has been learned from this website with alot of maintenance experience tied in. That alone is a good enough reason for all new guys to become a member and support this awsome website. It's a great learning experience.
