Re: 72 C10 Build

We had a nickel-sized rust hole in the bed floor that I mentioned earlier. I missed getting a before pic but, here are a couple of the first repair passes. Wasn’t 100% sure how far we'd go with the right inner door shell repair. I only used a small part of that large inner patch panel to repair the rusted-out area. With the skin removed it gave us good access to both sides of the patch. Also, allowing the straightening of the lower and rear door shell areas. If you recall that rear area was pretty wavy from the earlier accident.

Re: 72 C10 Build

Thanks, will do. My boys and I are having a good time on this one.


Right inner rocker fitment and a quick check of the lower fender mount spec I took earlier (7.5” ish). That green stuff is Eastwood Internal Frame Coating, I sprayed up in the roof and both A & B pillars. I figured it couldn’t hurt and may slow the rust.

Sub'd to follow along with the rest of the build. Nice progress so far on the rust repairs. I just went through all the same issues last year.
