Right Side Outer Rocker Panel Install


Now that all of the interior compnents have been rebuilt and the rockr panl line established, I can begin to install the Outer Rocker Panel sheet metal. 
 

 This side will be rebuilt in sections as there is more "good" existing structural tine left and it will help keeping everything lined up properly. I prepped the area but cutting away all of the old sheet metal and...

....trimmed the replacement piece to fit.

  I punched some holes along the top edge of the rocker panel to facilitate tack welding to the existing inner rocker panel...

 ...set it in place & welded it in.
 

 After cleaning up & grinding.

Next step is to align the bottom of the outer rocker panel with the bottom of the inner rocker panel.

I hope to spot weld this in place tomorrow.
