Re: 65 C10 SWFS BBW "Clyde" @Poypeyes Rod Shop

Hey Chris!
Things are looking good!
I don't know if you noticed in my thread, but I had a similar problem with my roof and the tin-canning effect....Funny thing, but I never noticed until I thought that I had it ALL fixed, that the driver's side rear roof & drip-rail were pushed down about 3/8" from the opposite side.
Needless to say, total re-work with a sledge-hammer, and a body contoured 2"X12" placed strategically under the rear ledge of the roof fixed that, and also took care of all of the plastic work that I had labored so hard on!!!

Oh, and I would like to make a correction to your post that shows the door-jamb work:
GM had plenty of spot-welds, but on my cab, the only sign of seam sealer was in the rain-gutter.
I must have spent $200 on epoxy seam sealer doing the door-jambs, doors, rain-gutter, cowl & firewall.
As far as spot-welds go, the dash on the passenger-side had a boat-load of attempted welds along the lower windshield, & cowl that never took!
The dash & glovebox must have rattled like hell!!!! LOL!
Probably one of the reasons that mine is so rust free, nobody could stand to drive it!!!
All of that is fixed now!
