Looking for an expert! Or some one smarter than me!c

I just finally started cutting out the rust at the door sills and realized I will need a few more Panels, can some one point me in the right direction and give me some pointers,

Not sure but last time I checked you could not get spray foam from GM!

See attached files, I will need the panels at the aft pillar I am sure

Re: Looking for an expert! Or some one smarter than me!c

Looks like inner rockers, outer rockers, bottom of the A pillar patch, B pillar patch...

And from experience-

front cab mounts, floor pan, kick panels, b panel floor support and bracing and some of the rear b pillar step up panel.

Quite a bit of work ahead of you...but it is all fixable.

Where is the best place to get these parts at and does anyone have a real good thread already to help me understand how to put them back on the truck?

Thanks

lmc truck, top bananna, gmc pauls, good mark, classic industries are just a few that have the parts. top bananna and gmc pauls are site vendors here and both have quality parts. many threads in the projects section that detail replacement. just start reading.

There is a lot of good Blazer rust repair in this thread: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=242701

Here is a great video on repair on the pickups: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...ad.php?t=81998
He is still on the board regularly.

Here is a vendor list, note the vendors with stars: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/links/browselinks.php?c=2
