    I think this is the solution I've been looking for to save a truck cab that has tricky rust adjacent to the drip rails, simply eliminate them. Good presentation, thanks for sharing.

      Thanks so much for watching! They are plenty of work, but worth it IMHO.

    Those 70's drip rails work great as long as they don't get wet 😉

    Time consuming and it doesn't change much, but it looks great. Unless you know cars or you pay attention, most people won't notice, but it gives it a clean look for sure. Great job, 👍 when we weld on the 60s chevys, they always have lead work in the window corners and back corners at the top of the quarter panels. The lead work looks great if you know how to do it, but I prefer the mig welder when im cleaning up old trim panel holes and holes on the pinch welds behind the glass. I use a brass spoon to help with blow through and runaway welds, but any piece of brass works great as a backer. Try it out sometime if you haven't. Good job, though. Happy New Year

      Great tip on the brass...anything to dissipate some heat for the burn throughs. Thanks for watching!

    Very Interesting videos you are making. I am doing a roof swap on an 89 bronco. For what it is worth I have been using the Pferd .030 cutoff wheels for several years and they work great and since it is a thinner curf the cutting goes very fast and accurately.

      Thanks for the tip my friend, I go through them a lot right now. LOL. Thanks for watching!

    A ton of work, but it looks smooth!

  • @thejefe6894

    I think it is going to look great, maybe it will help with the wind noise these cars have. Are you going to remove the stainless moldings on top of the door window frames too? Happy New Year!

    • @letsgetdirtygarage6197
      @letsgetdirtygarage6197  ปีที่แล้ว

      yeah the stainless around the door frames is a delete item as well. gonna go with just the smooth painted look.

      For sure my friend. Customizing is just that, done to a unique taste and nobody will have the exact same preferences. Thanks so much for watching!

    Looks great, but if caught in the rain will the stock style replacement door/glass seals be enough to keep water out of the car? I mean even a show car/weekend warrior will get caught in the rain occasionally.

    • @letsgetdirtygarage6197
      @letsgetdirtygarage6197  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It should shed rain, the top of the doors are inset quite a ways from the roof line anyway, and driving around with rage to clean up my messes isnt new to me. lol. Thanks for watching!

      If I can do it, you can do it. I just think it looks so much better without. Thanks for watching!

    Any long time experience after deleting the rails? Does water enter?

    What about the water dripping in the windows 🤣

    • @letsgetdirtygarage6197
      @letsgetdirtygarage6197  ปีที่แล้ว

      The doors sit inboard of the roof anyway and this will certainly not be a daily driver to see much rain.
