good morning all, i have become slightly addicted to this forum site so i thought i would share my current dodge project,

my brother and my dad decided that they wanted to start this project while i was deployed overseas to take advantage of the truck just sitting in his driveway, i went to LMC and ordered all the replacement panels (cab corners, rocker panels) they started on the drivers side cutting off all the rotted parts and cleaning up the edges, and welding on new corners and rockers, right about now they are just putting the last rocker on the passangers side then its all mud and sandpaper, i also purchaced southern fenders, hood, bed, and bumpers to get rid of almost all the rust on my truck but im not 100% sure what color i want to paint it yet and looking for ideas,

Nice to see someone fixing up an old one instead of buying new.

Keep up the great work and I hopeto see many more pics.

Lastly, thanks for your service and stay safe!

looks like quality work, just did a pair of these myself. now make sure you undercoat the crap out of the inside of those puppies so you don't end up having to do them again in a few years. looks like you would benefit from doing the whole truck as well to slow down the cancer.

I am about to take this project on! Planning to do it from home. We're the LMC rockers and cab corners a perfect match?
Thanks!
