Talked my self in to doing a bit of rust dent repair used 16 gauge on the bed as it looks like that is what they used from the factory 18 gauge is what I would use normaly.Still need to hammer dolly it out a bit to match the back section still need to grind down the front fender patch more and the door needs quite a bit of work still I HATE rust.
Got the ididit floor mount and Mr Roadster column drop.Need to weld up the hole in the floor cut new hole and make a mount for the column drop.After a bout 19 years of welding on and off I some how managed to flash my right eye enough to give my self flash burn no idea how I did it but after it goes away gona get started on it.
