Some Cab body work being done on my '60

Postby jbgroby on Tue Mar 03, 2009 7:28 pm

Over the past 3 weeks I've been able to get a few guys to do some body work on my '60 GMC. The worse area was the passenger side door pillar. I had two broken bolts for the door check retainer and no amount of drilling/easy-out was going to get the old bolts out. I contacted RJ Sisneros in Colorado to get a used pillar.

In just two hours or less Esteban was able to remove the old section, cut to fit the new section in and well it in place PERFECT. I'll post some pictures tonight but here is the webshots link to see all the pictures.

When you look in the album, note the drip rail work. Jesse is the other fellow. He HATES BONDO, a dolly, a hammer and a stud welder is his freind.

Looking good! :thup

To start a build thread just go to the build section and start with the beginning of your project, maybe start with pictures of when you bought it, before anything was done, basically just tell and show everything you have done from the start to now. As you do more add it to your build thread.
