(insert that funny icon the say "This post is worthless without pics")

 

Pics pics. What rocker panels did you use and what all areas did they cover?
Would it be enough to cover my grey two tone?

 

i cut out the entire rocker panal, and am redoing the entire thing with sheet metal...

and i dont have a camera....i know its pointless without pics, but you never know, i may manage to get a few on here....im not going to be done with this for a little while, so i have time to buy a camera....lol patience, there shall be pics eventually.

 

ok, did a little bit more to it today....

the bottom of my doors are so rusted, the pinch weld is gone, so the door stuck out about 2-3 inches more than it should...

so i cut and bent homemade brackets out of the sheet metal...have it going from door, down, and bent up under to the inner panaling. bondoed it in place, and now the door shuts flush with the rocker panal...and with the rocker panal done, shes starting to look mighty good.

NEXT:
Im going to cut a piece of sheet metal from the first lip on the door, down, and bondo it in place. then ill make a piece that will go on the underside of the door, to cover those rust holes, then its the cab corner...once i bondo everything in place, ill rivit it in (holes already drilled) then rhinoline all of it.

seriously im really trying to get pics, ill ask peeps at work tomorrow if they'll let me borrow one...

 

Seriously, I need pics. :P I want to repair the rust on mine.

 

its cost me less than $20 so far


like i said i have a while before its done....this is all drivers side...i still need to do passenger side....

 

got a little work in today...i have a piece of sheet metal cut to the shape of the bottom of the door....i held it on with vice grips to see how it would look with rocker panal, and damn, this is comming out awesome....

drillin holes tomorrow to leave it in place... this project is actually really fun.

hoping for pics soon.

 

So are we.

 

lol....i cant afford to buy one until after the moose hunt....which is now 2 days away then vacation for 10 days...so excited....

but the project like i said wont be done for a while...ill probably have the drivers side done by the time i get a camera..

soooo im going to wait to do the pass. side until i get a camera so everyone can see all the steps im taking to make this work.....and trust me, this is very cost friendly and fun IMO...

so far this is what ive bought:

piece of sheet metal: $8.50
Bondo: $8.99
Sheet metal cutters: $7.00

so its cost $24.49 so far...not to shabby since it actually looks bada$$

Ive done rocker panal, brackets for door, and from moldings; down on door, and i still have some sheet metal left....

 

we really need in progress pics so we can evaluate the work instead of a pic of the bondoed over end
