I remember long time back ,It's not going to be a full restore but a work on & drive at this time "RIGHT"Take your time & do it right.It's going to be a very nice pick-up.Hope is all well with you&yours my TH-cam friend.....
Yea it’s definitely escalated. Still not a full restore tho!
I thought my truck was in rough shape till I saw yours,I call mine in 85% percent condition.Thanks for the video.
Watched quite a few rust repairs yours is by far the most complete job. Removing all rust even nearby rust. full marks a good solid long lasting repair. The best I've seen.
I too am getting ready to do the inner and outer rocker panels I appreciate you taking the time to film this look forward to your next one!!!👍👍👍
Paul, good to see you back on the 1970 C10 it's been awhile since your last video. I'll keep watching my friend.....
That was a good idea tack welding the braces inside the cab. When I cut out my inner & outer rocker, and rear pillar the cab corner went back 1/4 inch. I had to pry on it against the box to weld it back in place.
Nice job! You make it look so easy!
Super grateful for this playlist and the links in comments. These are coming in clutch for me, thank you man 🙏🏼
Nicely done, getting closer everyday!! Thanks for sharing
Piece by piece
Just finished my floor and door pillar.
Great Video Thanks
Great job Paul!!! Keep up the awesome work! I always look forward to your content. I can't wait till the the warm spring weather is here in ontario canada, so I can get back to work on my 67 C10. I don't have a shop to build mine in or store it in anymore. So 99% of the work in done in my driveway! 😊
Spring is right around the corner. You’ll be back at it soon
@@paulkc10 hey Paul well yes i have been out working some... I got the welder up and running working on the rear step side fender....
Watching your build, great work man.
Great videos, I'm learning a lot from you before I try it for the first time. Thanks for taking the time to do the videos.
Like the music to. Whos on your soundtrack?
Great video looking real good great skills can't wait to see more progress
Lookin good, is this the first time you have done work like this? I have never done any body work but your videos are giving me confidence. Looks like you just take your time, little by little and fit, fit, fit, fit then weld it in. Great job
Yea first project doing anything like this.
You got it down. Fit, trim, fit, trim, fit etc. it’s easy to take a little more off but it’s really hard to put a little more back on.
Can't believe you got all this stuff on amazon. What don't they sell
Ive make a how to series pretty in depth.. Hopefully it helps some folks. I tried to talk it through step by step...
Got a question, you repaired the floor pan first, any special reason as I've heard some say the inner rocker should be repaired/replaced first so as to establish an outer frame, just wondering as I'm facing such a repair.
Do you by chance know what the measurement is from the bottom of the A-pillar to the bottom of the first hinges bolt hole?
👍
Are you using a flux core welder?
New suscriber, great channel

Hi Paul, Thank you for putting together this cab panel replacement collection. Super helpful! A few questions: did you have to repair the cab front and rear supports? if so, When did you do that? did you do that after the floor replacement pieces? did you use the slide on supports or the OE style? Also, What setting did you have your welder at? wire speed and volts? Im using 0.035 size wire. Thanks man!
Yea all can supports were replaced after. Oem style
Great videos, I have a 66 c10 where can I order the corner panels ? Thanks

Hey the panel that youre fitting up at 4:51, what is that called? I've been searching for one for about an hour online and can't find it. Working on inner and outer rockers, got them out on the passengers side and saw the present the previous owner left me. It was literally held together with bondo. Going to need to do cab corners now as well as the piece im asking you about. Thanks in advance Haha! Love your videos man! Haha
It’s the rear pillar. I put a link in the video description.
@@paulkc10 thanks man! How tall was the cab corner patch you got? Mine has damage about 16" up from the bottom. Not sure if the patch panel will be tall enough.
Are you running your welder with the bottles?
Yes
Never mind lol
what welder do you use

@@paulkc10 thanks another question how long is the short bed supposed to be when it’s cut
20” shorter
