    Spare tire was being a little *****

    Retaining bolt broke loose from its mount inside the rear quarter panel so there was no way to unscrew the hold-down bolt for the spare tire, so I had to make a few alterations with my drill. Kept punching holes around the nut until there was enough room to pull it through. It wasn't pretty but...

Either way I will get it straightened out before...

    Yep, in this situation there was so much rot that I actually had to use the trim as a structural reinforcement. If I had removed the trim to do the Bodywork there would be no wheel arch so I just made it a part of the body. Plus I'm doing a bedliner paint job on the whole truck so it will all...
