Re: 63 SWB C10 LT1/4L60E Swap

Ordered a whole bunch of patch panels from Top Banana. Santa's big brown truck delivered them the other day so off to repairing the rust. I got inner and outer rocker panels, toe kick panel, cab corner, fender braces and patch panels.

I started on the fender. The PO had installed a patch panel and did a really bad job, installed crooked, and of course it was the same size as the new panel. So cut right where he tried to weld it. He ground so much the metal is paper thin and blowing thru when I weld in a few spots, so more patching.
