Re: Out of the Ditch = The Rebuild Begins ('72 GMC)
Thanks you'se guys!

67CRN... I hear ya. There really is no easy way out with rust when finding one of these old trucks. Wishful thinkin' I guess.

The corner is welded in and I shot it with primer. Next I have to tackle that drivers side door pocket so I can mount the door to line up the outer rocker.
