This weekends progress includes:
1. Tacked in patch panel on left front fender. 2. Welded in fuel filler patch panel. 3. Welded in the three firewall patch panels. 4. Removed the right side rocker panel. Have to order the A & B-pillar patches. Each front corner requires the floor, kick, A-pillar and rocker patch panels. All cab supports need replacing and rear needs B-pillars and cab corners. I suppose I know what my summer consists of.... Justin |

Made some progress this weekend. I replaced the right front fender tip. I forgot to get a pic of the finished product but here are a few during the replacement. Also, went to local pick-n-pull and cut a roof off a truck to repair the roof panel on mine, vendors wanted $250.00 just for shipping on a new panel. The whole roof panel cost me $50.00 and wasn't rusted in the typical spots. Also got the rear back glass for $20.00.
Anyone have input on the best way to replace the roof panel? I'm currently torn between cutting about four smaller patch panels from the new roof or just cut across the back and replace panel as a whole. I'm leaning toward replacing the whole panel so I can get in there between the inner and outer panels and apply the rust converter/encapsulator inside. Thanks, Justin |
Re: 1st Project: 71 C10 SWB
Man, you are doing some nice work on the rust battle! I'm not sure about the roof replacement. I have sectioned one before and it was a pain to get the contour back like the original because of warpage.
I like the idea of replacing the whole roof if you can. Not sure if you can just cut the pillars and weld it back? I like the new roof, it looks pretty clean. You cut it off at the pull a part? I guess they let you use power tools? The one I go to doesn't allow any power cutting tools. I guess they had too many fires? You basically have to hack saw panels. |

Yea, the pick-n-pull here allowed my to take in the generator to operate grinder as long as it had the fuel already poured into it, couldn't take a fuel can. I think i could have rented it out and made some extra money. :) Quote:
