67c10 build

Last thing I did is the pedal assemblies. Very happy with fit and finish of the pads and trim rings. I think both counterpart, nice stuff

[67ctener]

Started rust repair on the cab. Got a 3k quote for metal work so figured it was my time to learn. Passenger side needed inner rocker, kickpanel, cab corner, lower jambs front and rear and outer rocker

[67ctener]

Wasn't as scary as people made it out to be. Majority of the time is just fitting and shaping it with tons of tacks to get panel alignment right on

[67ctener]

The lower jamb piece I thought turned out great. I had a few hours fitting it but welded it up and hit it with some 36 grit pads and it cleaned up nice

[67ctener]

Hung the door and fender before welding the rocker in cab corner. I'm happy with fit and finish of it all.

[67ctener]

Much better then it was with all gm metal

The rear pan hard bar was straight so I had a friend bend it for me to clear the diff cover. Thanks for the compliment there Sanderson bb8s

Really nice job with the rust repairs on the cab, wish my cab corners looked that good.

Thanks Keith. Pictures are a little deceiving, the back of the cab corners are a little bumpy but I think should smooth out fine

Thanks sir. I've always been a fan of the in cab tank. I can understand the efi guys moving them but this big block is gonna be drinking right out of the cab. I've been using a miller 140. It's been great, my first time welding with gas and all I can say is wow

[67ctener]

I bought a reproduction fender, don't remember the manufacture, and just kept fighting it to make it fit. I got so frustrated I cut up the fender and fixed my original. I'm officially a firm believer there is no replacement for oe metal

[67ctener]

The rear of the fender was so beat up I replaced it also

[67ctener]

No ebfabman but those sand disk sure clean up the welds nice

[67ctener]

Driver side was about the same as far as work but only partial inner rocker and this side needed a little bit of the floor pan

[67ctener]

I lucked out, all the cab supports were good so I just hit them with some rust converter and primed them

[67ctener]

Had to split the rocker on this side to get it to align with the door

[fastcam1]

Someone's been busy, build looks awesome keep up the
good work!

[original-71]

very nice updates, looking good

[67ctener]

Thanks Cameron, how's yours coming along? Hope to attend my first meet next year with my truck. Hector I ended up going with your tires size, looks much better now in my opinion. Can't wait to see those rally's on your truck.

[fastcam1]

Haven't made much progress but I hope to bend up all of my brake lines starting next week.

[67ctener]

Rust is evil. Found a little more when trying to fill a pin hole. Took a 2" wholesale and made a series of holes till I found no more rust

[67ctener]

Not sure why it posted sideways, hope this ones better. Got it welded up and it finished nicely

[67ctener]

Hope this pic turns out or I don't know what to do. Finished up both fenders, not sure it was worth the time but there both original and fit great
