Before and after.

Very nice! Did you fix up the rocker boxes too?

Yes sir! Every piece of this truck that has rust in it has been replaced. I hate rust, before it rusts through again my kids will be selling it at my estate auction.:D

Floors, kick panels, "B" pillars, inner and outer rockers, lower "A" pillars, rocker boxes, right side of radiator support, inner and outer lower doors, front bed quaters, and all bed supports.

Glad I'm getting close to the end.
 
Yea, I just did my outer rocker and had some trouble lining it up with the bottom of the door. I've seen a few other people with the same problem. How did yours turn out?
 
What, bp75? Haven't started mine yet, am researching this area heavy! Changed my buildup strategy to adding all my drivetrain, suspension, chassis, mods and then moving on to the bodywork. Any ideas? Pic's?
 
Actually, I meant to reply to RustyParts. They look pretty sweet in the pictures and I was curious if there was any trick to making them line up better.

Yes I started with the chassis so everything would be straight before I put the body in place. From there everything is trial and error as far as replacing body parts because the aftermarket stuff does not fit like the factory parts they all have to be tweaked into place.
