Today's Progress

This is what I got done today. I just have the old piece on top to show a comparison.


It's no where near perfect but it will work. BTW this is my first repair patch.

Eric if your reading this, the parts fit great!

Looks good. Keep in mind I'm not sure what part that is from, butWhat I like to do is to "lip" edges a inch or 2.

If you need timbits, I just finished my 1969 doors, they are the same style. Are you needing new patches or just something small?

Nope, I believe this is my old red M350 truck box side/bottom repair.
I don`t believe Nathan`s 51 dually doors are red.
On edit: Sorry, I thought you were talking about Nathan`s project....

You would have to ask lockups/Eric, he had it done for Nathan. Probably it`s a bit heavier than stock, what ever that is...

It's the front bed panel.


The stock bed sides are 16 gauge. I think I might need the lower panels made up now also as they have rusted bad at the lip. I'll give Eric another shout tomorrow and see what can be arranged.

Thanks for the offer Ryan but I have patches from a donor door already.
