    Inner Rocker, Outer Rocker, Inner Cab Corner, Kick Panel & Floor Replacement

    I’ve got a whole build thread called ground up restoration, full custom four link and front suspension, but may not be your cup of joe, ended up posting this up because there is nothing I have found out on the inter web that shows anywhere near the process.
