Rocker repair but not on a Chevy.
« on: October 18, 2012, 01:01:23 am »
79 Mack RD. Just get it inspectable!
Rocker and lower door jamb rotted out. Someone had put a new piece of sheet metal in the bottom flat section of the jamb. They went right over the non skid tape from the factory, and the rust! Dug a big pile of spray foam out of the cab corner / back half of the rocker.












Some short strand filler.


My camera battery died after that pic. I didn't remember to charge it the next day before he picked it up. It was a close is good spray bomb job as he plans on selling the truck after the first of the year.

Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs
