65 GMC Rebuild
don't know if I'm doing a good enough job or not but won't let that stop me. here are a few pics of the cab corner I replaced today. The outer rocker isn't installed, just hanging there to check to fit. waiting for inner cowl panels to come from classic parts before I can complete this side.

Re: cab corner pics
here some more pics of progress today. I really liked the inner cowl patch panels and A pillars from Classic Parts, the fit was pretty dang good, if you compensate for my lack of experience in body work.

Re: 65 GMC Rebuild
Joe I had to put in a request to Fred to forum moderator to change it, I didn't want to keep cluttering up the forum with a new post everytime I added pics.

Re: 65 GMC Rebuild
Well done! Nice technique! I have paid professionals for work that was probably not as well done.

Re: 65 GMC Rebuild
I appreciate the compliment billydon, but I'm no professional, just a green horn everything I have done so far has been learned from this website with alot of maintenance experience tied in. That alone is a good enough reason for all new guys to become a member and support this awsome website. It's a great learning experience.
