Late start today due to daily driver issues.

Started chopping out junk on the driver side dogleg at high noon. 

Welded and dressed several pinholes in the   B-pillar and dogleg. Inner section patch panel up next. 

 

We will build it if it comes.

Shaped a patch for the drivers inner dogleg. 

Fit, burned in, and dressed.

Spread seam sealer on the inside of the repair area. Cut a patch for the outer while that dried. Masked, then sprayed the inside with Rustfix.

Sharp stick test to define the repair area for the passenger side dogleg. More early tomorrow.

We will build it if it comes.

Sounds like a Stocker, all rebuilt, rust repaired and paint blended???????  Not going all Street Slammed or a knobby tire worker????????

Or let’s lift if, cage it, and BAJA it!!!! Race car recovery rig….if Buddy doesn’t chime in I’ll head down this path.

 

Early start today. Mid day update

Burned in and dressed the drivers outer dogleg patch first thing.

Bent up a patch for the inner passenger dogleg repair and patched a small section of the b-pillar inside the dogleg. 

Same as the drivers side, spread seam sealer on the backside to cover any pinholes after dressing welds. 

Lower pass b-pillar section next.

We will build it if it comes.
