Re: LMC Replacement Rocker Was Too Short

I agree a "rust free" body would be ideal.... unfortunately a lot of us live in the "northern rust belt".... and obtaining rust free bodies is not easy/cost effective.
The truck I'm restoring right now is an 82' with 86 thousand miles. Bought if from the original owners estate. Truck runs/drives like new, but a little rusty.
Ordered replacement inner/outer rockers and inner/outer cab corners made by a company called "Key Parts". Think they are made offshore (like everything else) ..... but fit... quality was surprising. Minimal modifications, and nice welding in as they appear to be as thick, or slightly thicker than original equipment.
