The thing is it's my first solo build and my first Chevorlet build, She needs alot of patch work on the cab(rockers, cab corners, driver floor). I was just wondering if you veterens had any tips and tricks theat would help me out. Any help will be great

when we did the rockers in the 67 we did it when the cab was bolted to the frame...ive heard that if you do them when the cab is off the frame you might have alignment problems later on when assembling etc

if you do decide to do a frame off resto make sure to remove the doors & fabricate a brace going from latch area to both ninges. that way the cab stays rigid & dimensions dont change.
