Re: 1964 GMC Model 1002 build journal
Hi all:
Passenger door alittle more involved. Found rust pitting on the inside of the bottom of the outer door skin so had to do a bit more surgery. Also found some pinholes in the bottom of the door so had to buy a inner door patch as well even though I didnt use too much of it. This is it for my rust repair it is all done now. Took me longer than I thought the truck should of been in primer by now but looks like next year is the plan for paint.
PS: As you can see in the last pic, I had to take more of the bottom of the door skin to maintain the square edges. Bit more work but well worth the time. Pretty impressed with the fit of the patch panels we can get now for these trucks.
