Weekends of Saturday April 4th thru June 6th, 2009 : started pulling the botch job that the Previous owners bodyman attempted. Which was just cover up the rust not fix it. There are several areas where I am going to have to undo ard redo on this truck. I am tempted to have it blasted and start fresh, but... Both driver and passenger areas has repair pieces tacked over some MAJOR rust, the rocker on the drivers side was replaced, but it is all alone, no backing plate and was seamed to the floorpan. Drivers side the rocker was just fit over the existing one that is rusted out completely. Both sides had slip over floor supports and the rear supports are rusted through. Over the course of the next few weekends (other priority projects distracting) I have removed most of the rust enough to order some major pieces (still need more the deeper I get) I really don't now how I am going to address this yet, but....
If it keeps raining today I will be pulling the wiring out along with anything else that I feel will be in the way.
Here is the carnage so far as of June 7th, 2009
Passenger side
