Re: Sparky's 1978 Silverado Build "Addiction"

8 hours in the garage today!!!! Was able to get a lot of the structural work done along with tacking in the front of the rocker panel. Should be able to rework the rear of the rocker tomorrow along with getting the corner installed.

Pictures:
1. Operating table!
2. Cut out the old rocker, kick panel and some of the floor in preparation of installing new floor brace and cab support. Also supported the pillar before cutting into the floor brace.
3. Using self-tapping screws I fastened the inner rocker and kick panel in place.
4. Cut floor brace after drilling out the spot welds.
5. Good shot of solid floor being covered by previous repair. I just peeled it back to expose the original floor so that I could weld in the floor brace. I deal with the overlapping floor later.
