Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
I welded some tonight on the gas door. I had a couple flat spots show up. I got them out but I still have more welding to do. I think part of it is that the metal is thinner than the original metal. Argh!

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
I did get a little done today. I got the fuel door all welded in an the inner panel cut. I installed the filler tube too. I also cut the opening in the floor. I need to trim a little more of a radius around the tube then make a tube to hide it.
I finished welding up the hood and cut some holes in it. Then welded a little on the rocker.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
I put some bolts in where the original seat was bolted in. Then cut the heads off. They'll be seam sealed later.
I also welded a little on the rocker.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Didn't get a whole lot done today. Got some metal for the filler tube in the bed and welded some more on the rocker. I took the back glass out w/the help of my boy. The rubber was super hard. I guess it was baked in the AZ sun. We took the hood outside and washed it out. There were a lot metal shavings in all the hidden areas.
I also went and got my taxes done so ''a fun day''

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Rus cut my metal for me and I bought a couple parts at the swap meet. Other than that no progress. Had fun though. Super Bowl!

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
I didn't get a whole lot done but I did get a lot started lol. I got the kick panel patches tacked in. I got the cowl panel filler tacked in. A whole lot of work left to do on it. Took the bed off so I can put it together and weld in the cover for the fuel filler. I also welded a patch on my wood bed tail piece.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
I picked up a couple head gates for my steel and wood bed floors. I'll be getting the wood head gate and tail piece painted so I can change to wood later if I want. I also got a new rear bumper. I noticed that my door stops aren't working on either door so I ordered new top hinges today.
