Re: 49 ls1

I got the rocker panel patch in today, Had a real B$@ch of a time with the brace for the lower hinge pocket. 2 bolts broke during the hinge removal. I tried to get another used one a Jim Carter's today, but Arnold didn't want to cut one out, and no one makes a reproduction. I wound up drilling and tapping the two upper bolt holes and re-using the stock one. Wasted about an hour on that this evening. Got the bracing welded back in, and the floor to cab brace in nice and straight. Tomorrow I'll start putting the rest of it together.
