Chemist...your ride is awesome...love the ride height. We are still trying to decide on the right kit...3/5 DJW probably will do nicely. As you can see it really needs it! We lost the 4x4 bumper in the front, tube grill and painted the rear bumper the same color as the body. Drop and new rear wheels and tires next.

Thanks!

LOL
THANKS!
I'm "hoping" it will be a nice truck when it is done. It really is a borderline POC right now. The drive train is rebuilt in it, so mechanically it is in good shape. The only panel without a dent or major rust is the hood. The rest is getting replaced. Check the website for the complete rebuild details. I'm working on the replacement cab for it now.

Swervin' nice ride. Ok guys since I got a new welder and have perfected my light metal technique I am looking at a couple of quarter size holes in the back of the cab corners. I can't reach these from inside due the false floor to survey the extent of the rust. Should I just order new corners (can I even buy a new corner?) and replace the entire corner? Will a close up help?
Thanks in advance!

Here's the ugly view of my ride.

You guys probably don't get rust like this down south...but as you can see there is plenty of mud here in the NW. Someday I will pave the driveway. I should probably replace the entire corner...right? I am pretty certain the rockers are good...very little rust there. What you see in the pic is mostly mud...but the corner is bad.

I have new doors that will go on after the corners and after I get the GM sport mirrors.

Talking to myself here but what the heck. I found the cab corners on GMC Paul's for only $12.95! I can't figure out what the other pieces are that I am likely to need like inner cab parts and supports. I am not sure how I can get all those in place without taking the interior out and cutting the floor...does this all have to be done? Sounds like more than a weekend project to me!
