Re: My Red '70 Chevy Stepside

My truck isnt as pretty but i took a slow route but fun....I decided to do it myself.... Im not a mechanic, Never replaced metal before, and just bought a Angle Grinder, Grinder Blade, Diamond Blade, and Wire Wheel. I cut out and installed replacement panels from TABCO and GoodMark...Its a nice learning experience..Jsut need to take your time and wear protective goggles. You will need a welder or friend to weld them in eventually... The key is bending the points of the cuts to get them flush....Thats the hard part, you can buy a hand flange tool to do that....Its still hard though, especially on rockers
