Re: Project - '69 4x4 named "Patches"
Dam your truck looks awesome. Seems like skills and nice trucks are just natural in your neighborhood with you and Alan living there.

Well the cat's outta the bag now. Yes it's true, I finally started getting some work done this weekend. The first thing I did was to get rid of the old cab.

Re: Project - '69 4x4 named "Patches"
Took a little break during the 4th, but we finally jumped back in last night and picked up where we left off.
I finished cutting off the inner rocker and out floor area. ![]() ![]() Test fit the new pieces. ![]() Mocked up the outer rocker. At this point I had a pretty big smile on my face. I know I have a long way to go still, but this give me a big boost of motivation. I was ready to hang some doors and shoot some paint. ![]() ![]() Mocking up the kick panel and "a" pillar ![]() ![]() The area around the fresh air vent was rusted and pitted pretty good, so I cut that piece out as well. ![]() Cutting out the replacement piece for the kick panel area. ![]() At this point it was 11:30 so we called it a night. We only worked about 4 hours, but I'm pretty happy with the progress that we made. Stay tuned...

Re: Project - '69 4x4 named "Patches"
That looks like a better way to fix the kick panel area than what I did...

Re: Project - '69 4x4 named "Patches"
Nice work Shannon! Glad to see some of us are making progress...Gotta love those patch panels. Curious to see if you have any issues where the front of the rocker meets up with 'A' post-- that curved area that runs up the 'A' post on the inner kick panel
Your rolling chassis came out really nice I like the way the clamps are painted orange, no mistaken who owns them

Re: Project - '69 4x4 named "Patches"
I got to spend a little time on the truck again last night.
![]() We got the kick panel patch cleaned up and Alan made the new flange bends. ![]() The next area of concern was about half way up the "a" pillar where there was some pitting and rust. The bad piece was removed and Alan went to town fabbing up a new piece. ![]() ![]() Alan making it happen. ![]() The new piece. ![]() And it fits...... ![]() ![]() The new kick panel patch was installed next. ![]() ![]() We called it a night shortly after this. Stay tuned we're on a roll now.
