More progress from a very busy Sunday. I did finish the last of the rear wheel well and front filler neck cover, and moved onto the door area. The wheel wells will have to be reinforced once the tub is taken off the frame since it is hard to reach from under the vehicle.
From lessons learned on the passenger side door, I took many extra measurements and continued to measure each time a new piece was being set up in the door area. I was able to cut out the old striker post, rocker panel, and inner rocker panel. I then prepped the support channels and floor pans and got most of the inner rocker welded in.
I line up the new striker post and it needs a little tweaking before welding. If all goes well I could be working on the kick panel, door post, and cowl panels by the end of next weekend, that is as long as I stay motivated.
