Rocker Panels for the 320 Pickup

[Datsun Bob]

Does anyone make preformed rocker panels for the 320 Pickups 1962 if it matters??

[merlin]

No, but if i can get the profile right, i will...

I have heard of taking a cross section of your rocker to your local sheetmetal bender (the kind thatdoes stuff for contractors, that sort of thing.) And as long as they have the profile to go by they can replicate it in any length.

i have a 36 inch break and need to do mine... I just don't know if I have enough left rust free to get a profile:lol:! I'm headed back to the shop today to have a look :lol: :lol: !

Guy [fontana 620] made both rockers for our 320 using a metal brake & roller & lots of patience.

the curved piece was rolled ...

yeah me too, both my rocker panels are rotted out,especially the passenger side.

Ill talk to Guy in about 1 week & see how much he'd charge for a set of 320 rockers & if he even has time to make them. Keep in mind they'd need to be trimmed to fit a specific truck depending on how bad the rust / damage is.

I am sure i am not the only one who needs rocker panels for their 320 , so it might turn into a side line for him to make a few pairs . Any replacement rocker panel would need to be trimmed to fit and require some fabrication .These are things i can do I just did not want to have to fabricate the whole thing my self .Thanks for looking into it
