started by taking off the clip, then Im going to start the rust repair on the passenger side. it just needs inner outer rockers, lower a pillar, kick panel and some floor patches. I will start there and work my way back. look how bad the door gaps are from the factory.

**lolife99** · 05-13-2014, 08:44 PM

Love it!

**Dieselwrencher** · 05-14-2014, 02:55 PM

Nice work and those gaps are pretty crazy.

BigMike · 05-15-2014, 03:01 AM

Make sure to keep taking lots of pictures and posting them all. I LOVE this build!

This is gonna be a BADA$$ truck once it's finished.

So true Paul, I think a bit part of the hold up was my fault.

its not your fault its good to step away from a project some times
but I am a little burned out on rust repair now!

I finished up the rocker on my truck today here is the test fit berfore I burned it in. I would post a pic of it finished but everybody has seen a rocker welded in.

71cheynne402 · 05-23-2014, 10:54 PM

yea i welded the front and rear rocker together to look like one long rocker because thats what I did on the other side.

oilyrag80 · 05-26-2014, 10:32 PM

Ok a few pics of the finished rocker

mcbassin · 05-26-2014, 11:45 PM

Very nice work on the rocker. looks great.

bodydropped68 · 05-27-2014, 09:29 AM

Looking good your check list is getting short on the body.

oilyrag80 · 06-15-2014, 11:37 PM

Found a truck I couldn't pass up it's a 67 big window short step randomly mounted on a 56 chevy truck frame? I'm not going to keep it, trying to flip it quick but if that dosen't happen i'll just part it. It's kind of a shame about the frame because the body's is really nice.

**Palf70Step** · 06-16-2014, 06:02 AM

Nice!

Mustard72 · 06-16-2014, 09:10 PM

Makes a fella wonder how the decision was made to put that body on that older frame, doesn't it?

Yea its pretty strange they even used the 235 6cylinder and 56 brake master?
It looks like I will be parting it out as well.

oilyrag80 · 06-17-2014, 10:06 PM

I have been squeezeing in some time on my truck as well I gave up on the original 3rd door looks like it was hit at some point. Luckily I have spare one and it fit much better. I will post better pics later.
