Re: My 1970 GMC Project

Thank you TA.

Today was a good progress day! I got the rest of the roof seam welded shut as well as ground down. After that, I went back to the passenger side and did the grinding under the rocker. Im very impressed with how my work in flattening the pinch seam at the bottom of the rocker turned out. I was also able to get a preliminary fit of the drivers door and fender all done. It's not horrible, though I did have to bend the window frame out about 1/2" as it was touching the pinch weld and there was no way that I would have fit the weatherstripping in there. As far as gaps go, the upper gaps are quite large and will require addressing once I hit body work stage. The rear gaps are quite nice as are the front gaps between door and fender. Bottom gaps are obviously non exsistant at this time.

My lower fender mounting bolt lined up nicely with where I had assumed the lower pillar would sit so that is good news. Next is both lower pillar repairs.
