New Blazer project. And a question....

[67Steven]

Well, not a lot of questions. After searching and searching, I finally found (read: got tired of looking) a blazer project for the family to work on.

It is a 1972 CST Cheyenne packaged truck. It was last licensed in 1986, and apparently has been torn apart since then in a shop. Looks as though most of the parts are there, minus the dash and steering column that were kept by the lying piece of **** guy I bought it from. (Story for later)



The body seems in really good condition, and except for the rust through I found on the inner rocker, I have found just surface rust. The original PO had stripped the body, primed it and then it sat. The fenders and doors are PERFECT.



He had also cut holes in the floor for an extra fuel tank, so I will be looking for a small patch panel I can weld back in.



The top is not so good, I will try to rehab it, I have wanted an excuse to play with fiberglass and resin. Here is my son helping out:



Question: Can I cut back on the floor, remove and replace the inner rocker and patch the floor back in without removing the outer rocker, as it looks solid? (Except the pin holes, heh)






The drivers side floor/inner rocker looks the worst, but I am going to do both sides.
