airedout Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Replace the fender and valence for sure. Id be on the lookout for a bed too. The rust in the floor boards just needs to be cut out and replaced with a good used part, or fabricate some panels to weld in. Solid weld, never just tack. I see it done so often, just tacked in and seam sealed it just looks so cheesey. Quote Link to comment
Hyphy Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 you could replace the rusted sections of the fender and valance with sections from incomplete or beat up other pieces....the bedfloor will be a lil harder given its right at the bed wall. A good sand blasting should reveal what decent steel you have left and where to start tho. Quote Link to comment
groatd Posted June 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 well i dont realy see buying a new truck an option but i was thinking about for the floor bord welding sheet metaal on it, for the bed sheet metal on the underside and bondo the top paint it then put a bed liner in it, for the fender sheet metal on the back side bondo then paint?
