i think i got it from classic heartbeat..but i bought the truck replacement and for some reason it didnt come with the body lines around the arch (which i knew when i ordered it). i bought the correct one on the other side and i think it came out great..def should have went that route on the driver side but it was my first patch panel ever! live and you learn i guess...

not a whole lot really, i did get the rear tailgate jamb sanded and primed, and replaced the third door rocker finally. still have to finish up some spot welds and splicing welds, then shoot a coat of primer on it. maybe some pics come weekend but its gonna look pretty much the same lol.


trying to figure out what direction i should go with now..i have a couple of extra bucks to put in it, wondering if i should get the high build primer and finish up the firewall and inner fenders (paint)...and start the dreaded body work!

Sweet. Thanks, they've got exactly what I've been searching for, now to scrounge up the necessary funds to purchase both sides. lol

lol...too funny. i actually have a few that made me feel like i have actually done something lol

i scuffed up the firewall and shot some shopline high build primer on it...2 coats overall and 3 coats on the main section of the firewall. i do have some nicks i didnt catch when i did the body work but oh well, i think it should still turn out nice. now im thinking why in the hell did i buy one stage paint for this..after all this work. but im still gonna use it.........
