    Long section of the outer rocker had to be taken care of first. Bent up a section, burned in a nut for the running board mount, melted it all together and dressed welds. A21FFB15-1DE9-4CCC-89AA-6F9BA8380CA34C9AF271-2B9E-484A-BC06-14EB57006E6B

    Heater channel end cap went in next. 0CA0BDB3-A44F-4EED-8B54-4830936B4F83E38BD3F9-FACF-4159-99EE-81ECE0E01196

    Last layer was a section of the rear cross member. Just one small piece of the rear quarter panel/fender well section to go in this area.5CFF4507-26E7-450C-9715-4AEFEE38F53C8C77C960-6CCF-4390-B093-29D901947C8D

    We will build it if it comes.
