lucky you. I got my corners and rockers from the auto fair at Charlotte about 4 yrs ago, and just got around to replacing them this week. the corners fit ox with some massaging(sp?) the drivers rocker fit after some modifications, and the passenger--well lets just say after some knuckle bleeding and some sailor words its on the truck now. I would not reccomend these--but i don't remember the company name i bought them from.

I do need to get one for the bottom of the door, and mabye the lower door skin anyone tried LMC (i think that's it) patch pannels, if so how do they fit.

Watched it rain alot and then sanded my grill support piece and ran the 1/2" front airline to behind the cab and cycled the bags a few times and checked for leaks.

Woogeroo · 07-02-2010, 06:22 PM

I taped up, prepped and spray painted the outside frame around the vent window glass on the driver side... and painted the exterior side of the vent window assembly as well.

Tomorrow, the fun part... putting it back together.

aggh.

lets see I tore the pillar out and the rocker panel and bgan to fit the repo products in that I got from Clkassic parts, the fit is real nice. Has anybody done this before if pls post pics or send them to cal2indy@comcast.net Thanks jeff in Indy

**Chevy Fleetside** · 07-03-2010, 06:41 PM

I put one tranny cooler line in becuase I forgot my double flaring tool. I also started it up again. I also set one of the exaust pipes I had under it and it is way off seeing it came out of my short bed. I will just build new ones. I also put the hood back on with the help of my Irish buddy.

1Bad62Pro/Street · 07-03-2010, 07:55 PM

Did some cleaning in the engine Bay.
Little painting too.

markeb01 · 07-03-2010, 08:27 PM

Fabricated a panel to fit between the splash pans for mounting backup lights next to the license plate. Tuesday I’ll take it to the local sheet metal shop and have them fold the edges in a brake.

I think it might actually look better than having the tank show from the rear as seen here:

Here’s the panel with and without the lamps:

And here is where the lights will reside once the panel is completed:

**TR65** · 07-03-2010, 10:12 PM

Man, I like that idea MB. Thanks for sharing. I have been trying to think of a good way to mount backups without cutting holes in the bed sides.

**scotts62** · 07-05-2010, 12:20 PM

Looks good Tony, nice and clean

markeb01 · 07-05-2010, 12:29 PM

Very impressive - as expected! Really like the white border and the bumper guards, makes it look authentic.

Rich 5150 69 · 07-05-2010, 12:56 PM

I`m going to have to cut the exhaust as they run over the axle inbetwen the panhard bar bracket and frame, I `m like a quarter of an inch from the exhaust now that is lower, any body trim rubber their stops in the rear, that might have to be done as well.

I dug my 64's bedside panels out of storage yesterday. Today i stripped the old paint, primer, and bondo off of the right side panel. It looks like i have a little more metal work to do than i thought.
