better link, only a single link LOL IMG 1495 - YouTube

 

lol thanks, fixed my post... sort of.


Apparently I suck at linking videos off of youtube, I've only been able to make it work properly on 1/3 forums so far lol

 

Started doing the rust repair today

 

Looks like you're making decent progress.

 

That's the same exact panel I'm finishing up (well, not exact...mines a Blazer). I welded in the new panel but I wish I had cut it at the body line. First body work I've ever done and I'm having problems blending the new paint into the old. I really suck at it. Mines a cherry red metallic. My hole got to be the size of my fist one day when I had scooted under my truck to look at something. Grabbed the body as I was scooting back out and there was a sickening crunch as my hand came back with a fist full of rust flakes.

 

Earlier in the week I got the rear window installed








And today Paul gave me a hand and we got the front window installed along with all of the trim and the plastic cowl.





And did some work on the cab corner. Did some fitting and tacked in place so I can work on filling in the back.

 

Looks good!

 

really impressive amount of work, im jealous of the whole build, cant wait to see you go thrash it offroad

 

Not much to update, been working on filling in the back of the cab corner. But I got sidetracked building a new workbench for my new sandblaster cabinet.





I did however pick up a set of 5.13 gears, a carrier and minor install kit for the front D44 on Friday, so that's something.

 

Didn't take any pictures of the backside of the cab corner in progress but it was finished, then cab corner starting to get welded in place.





Picture from the back





Finished welding





The patch panel didn't cover as much as it should have in the door jamb





So I made a filler piece to weld in








And welded in





Body filler applied





And sanded





I did a round of touch ups with body filler as well, there were a few low spots that needed more filling.


And got 2 coats of primer sprayed





I also got all the seam sealer applied where needed and sprayed the backside with some rocker guard. No pics of any of that though.
