SHOP UPDATE: Finishing the channel job on Susi's 37 pickup

 So, Susi's truck had sat in the dirt so long it had rusted the bottom of the cab off.  I have moved the floor up in the cab 4 inches leaving a serious gap between the floor and the new rocker panel.
 First thing was to straiten out the edges of the door jam and give me a place to attach the new filler panel.
 This is the font patch I welde in to clean up the lines of the door jam.
 the new panel trimmed to fit and marked out for bead rolling.

Here is the new panel bead rolled and welded in. Looks much better. Now I need to graft on the new cab corner from the donor cab and this side is finished.
