Where is everybody getting the best rocker panels and floor patches? What venders and brand?Key parts,truck shop, counter parts,soky? This shortwide 4x4 is worth doing some rust repairs on. not a fan of patina, so might have to paint it.

I would call GMC Pauls, better yet they do not answer the phone. Specify that you want Tri-Plus metal

They are supposedly the best of all the manufactures. All sheet metal will need some massaging to get into place correctly.

Buy from who you want. They don't make them. Just make sure they are selling Key Parts. I can only report on that brand from experience and you will find they are made well from same gauge metal as OEM. Because of their quality rockers I no longer get excited over N.O.S. ones

What's the history on your short K10? That is a pretty rare bird if original.

I don't have much on it as far as history. It's a running shortwide 4x4 with rusted rockers. a member on here has shown a lot of interest so I might not be fixing the rust. I am so busy with work I don't even have time or energy to work on The BLZNCST! Dang can't keep em all but this one has my heart. It's a cool old rig! Love the Dark Olive.
