Re: 1967 step side build!
I started fabn the tailgate tonight. It was pretty beat up so I gave it a little facelift. I’m gonna weld it up and body fill it to make sure it turns out good. If it doesn’t I’ll just buy one. I’ve got hidden hinges and latch kit from Mar-k to go on it also.

Re: 1967 step side build!
I dont have any pics tonight but I was able to weld the tailgate up and start grinding it back down. I do have a pic of our new shop dog. This is Maggie Sue. She is a Goldador. Mother is full blood yellow lab and father is full blood golden retriever. She’s spoiled already.

Re: 1967 step side build!
What a cutie!
Don't forget her lungs are as sensitive as ours, so kick her out for stinky stuff (wife's a veterinarian - I hear so many stories of dogs with lung problems from 2nd hand smoke, etc.) Great project as well! I put an 88-98 Silverado/Tahoe/Burb/S10 and all their twins door on my stepside like 12 years ago.

Re: 1967 step side build!
That custom tailgate is awesome! I usually don't like custom mods that mess with stock body lines or dimensions, but that looks right at home. Definitely gives some dimension to the flat stepside gates. Nice work.

Re: 1967 step side build!
Well it’s a shame you can’t buy used welding machines and use them for another 20 Years and have them weld good. Lol just kidding. My old Miller 130 mig had seen better days. I ordered a Miller 215 to replace it. We just got it in today and haven’t welded with it yet but I bet it’s way better. I have a whole cab repair job test it out on lol. It’s a multiprocessor that will TIG, MIG, and Stick all in one.

Re: 1967 step side build!
Been doing a lot of work on the old truck. Installed Mar-K hidden hinges and SS latches. I’m real happy how those turned out.

Re: 1967 step side build!
Nice truck , love the tailgate ,hope you can find a small window cab if you have to replace it. Started to read along cause we have something common. I have a '67 step side , but as I kept reading I realized we have dogs that are in common , mine is a Goberian her father was Golden Retriever and her mother was Siberian Husky. she'll be a year old in March.

Re: 1967 step side build!
We got the roof panel on and started welding it down. My stepson is a big help and I’m glad he’s into it. After I rust killed the inner roof panel I sprayed it with a coat of paint. We set the roof panel on and started tacking it into place. Love this new welding machine!

Re: 1967 step side build!
Good looking work my friend. That's just what I have been wanting to do to my truck as far as the roof. Mine has a little rain gutter rust and I thought about replacing the outer roof panel and cleaning the inner roof and adding some Dynamat just about like you done. Now that you got the process down maybe I could bring mine over!

Re: 1967 step side build!
I wonder if he ever got it done or is he waiting on parts like the rest of us.

Re: 1967 step side build!
This is some of the rust repairs which ended up being pretty extensive. I'm not a pro but I did the best I could.
