Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy
It's in the shop ready to be sanded down. This was a great score! The cab has very minor rust.

Good for you! That looks like a whole lot less work than either of the other choices.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy
Removed rocker on passenger side. PO had put small patches in the floor corners to coverup a little rust. Decided to replace floor, inner and outer rockers. I had them already.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy
Welded up floor pan today after mocking up rocker and door to make sure it was all lined up. Everything fit very well.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy
Thanks TJ and Don. While I had my welder out I stitched up the cab seam.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy
Looking good! I have the same EFI tank coming in next week. Glad to see it mounts nicely. Any issues with it, or the biggest thing to do is remove/relocate that thin crossmember?

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy
Tank looks good! I plan on a rear tank swap as well. Helps to add some weight on the back tires.
