Re: 67 SWB First Build

Progress has been a tad slow. I switched gears a bit from the tailgate and back to the cab. I installed the new driver door on and worked on aligning it. Gaps looked good with the b-pillar, but no bueno on the rocker. I installed the rocker back when I thought I was going to use a re-pop door. At the time I sliced and fixed it so it fit that door better. Well with this original door, the gap isn't very even. I figure if I'm going through all this work that I need to do it right. So I hacked that rocker off and will be replacing it. Ordered a new rocker, should be here next week.

Also worked on sanding the glaze on the roof. Just needs a little touch-up at the front lip.

Attached the fender on with the door. All gaps looked decent other than the rocker.

Had an old re-pop replacement rocker but it didn't fit very well. I'm hoping the new one I get is a bit better quality and require less slicing and dicing.

Decided to throw the passenger fender on too for kicks. Lined up decent.

Lots of sanding. I think the drip-rail shave is starting to pan out. Had a slight crown as you can see by the metal spots but it smoothed out nice and shouldn't be noticable after the high-build is sprayed. Need to clean up the front lip a bit.
