Re: Jimbo's 67 Long bed step side build
This is the angle piece that comes with the one piece window kit. It screws into the door A pillar. We decided to add this metal piece and weld to the post, to make a cleaner look, both inside and outside. If truck was painted this could not be done without repainting.

Re: Jimbo's 67 Long bed step side build
Not a drum, but a couple gallons. I like using the stuff, easier that POR, and does a good job. You'll see a lot more of it before I'm done

Re: Jimbo's 67 Long bed step side build
Had a wild night here in Missouri, but my neck of the woods was OK.
Pic 1 Back to the bed again, showing banged up inside of bed. Pic 2 Another view, here you can see the years of banging things around and how bad the panel is. This will be addressed later in the build.
