What started off as an attempt to replace the floor with a new drop-in floor pan, turned into completely rebuilding the rocker panels on this 1974 Chevrolet C20 Crew Cab, affectionately known as the cat farm crew cab. It's not a fun chore, but a guy just needs to get it done. Once the rockers and floor are finished, we'll be moving onto the LS swap!

I didn't know you were an auto body man. I'm impressed. Are you also an automotive paint tech? Be careful not to remove too much of the highly sought after patina. I've heard it gives a vehicle character. Keep on wrench in😎

When I do rockers, I use a thin kerf cutoff wheel, over lay the new metal and cut thru both pieces. The gap is perfect for penetration.

@AllenBruceRay 3 года назад

The tires are made by a company called Hankook (actually pronounced Hahn-gook). Those are made in Korea, where I've been living for a total of 25 years now. In fact, the word "Hankook" is the Korean word for Korea. They're a high-quality tire. I just discovered your channel a few weeks ago and I instantly fell in love. I appreciate your fine humor, depth of mechanical knowledge, can-do attitude, easy-going character, wonderful family, and patriotic spirit. Keep up the great work you are doing. In these times of turmoil, I'm certain that I'm not the only one who finds it supremely calming.

@dave1135 3 года назад

11:53. Easy way to get perfect seams for welding is have your panel a little long on the ends so it overlaps the old. Get your panel lined up and square and clamped in place, then take your cutoff wheel and cut through the new and old panel at the ends. Remove the cut old panel pieces and your new panel will perfectly butt against the original metal. Then just weld in place and finish as usual

When I replaced the rockers in my truck I cut everything including the floor pans out, and then had that “crap” moment when I realized I now had no reference.

I once put a complete floor in a 1970 VW beetle. I was still learning my trade and didn’t brace the body when I cut it all out. Took me days and a lot of hard work to weld it all in. Floor pans, inner and outer sills, A and B pillars, rear inner wing panels, front inner wings. Put it back on the floor and the doors wouldn’t shut. Chassis was an inch longer than the body. Ooopps.
