its been a while i guess ill start a build thread..

since you're cutting pristeen sheet metal why not keep the whole rocker panel in tact and sell it to the less fortunate guys in the rust belt :deal:
they had some small rot but the one on the drives side was new from lmc...lemme see what i can do..if the guys at the shop can salvage them

Drake said today that this was the first Chevy cab corner he had ever saw that wasn't rusted out.
 
mabye for some people but i think


RESTO SUCKS!!if you cant take a torch,grinder or hammer to it its not worth a dime in my book unless its a classic u could take to barret jackson and make money on

to each his own though thats just my imo and this is my truck :D
 
don't get me wrong i love what your doing and by no means is my truck restored, i just think its rather crude to cut up a pretty much rust free truck.. although it is yours as you previously stated so you can do whatever you want with it.
 
just got it home tonight from tangent and man im beat..i still got a lot of small stuff but the boatsides are done,the floor is boxed and the oh $hit handle is in...ill try to get some pics tomm
 
got it unloaded and painted the boatsides...flexed it out a little bit but couldnt get to much due to the rollers...anyway its home now for me to get to work

Nice work man, it looks freaking sweet. I want to do this to my truck. Any way we can get some pics of the inside of the cab were the boatside meets the floorboard.

i won the biggest tool award at one of our rides last year at the uhwarrie forest..so i thought of a pretty good idea for the trophy :D nice of $hit bar
