Pics for jimmy70, bed patch
Hey Marko, thought I’d share pictures of what I did with the bed patch panel you sold me. I had pretty bad rust in the typical spot along the rear bed cross member sill. The first few pics show the rust and sill repair.

Re: Pics for jimmy70
See this is why I don't post pictures of my garbage online.
  Fantastic work, I'm jealous. |

Re: Pics for jimmy70
I’ve found that it really makes a difference if I slow down, take my time and think ahead. But, I work slow. I’m probably approaching 30 hours on this one job.
