Hey Paul, if you keep your hands really dirty, like me, you can tape that paper template on and just rub your thumbs around the edges to mark the cut-out for your patch panels. ha ha ha. It works, but I'm also filthy as pig pen when I work. You, my friend, work so cleanly. I admire that!

I also simplified my truck by deleting all non-essentials. I drive very short trips so the 2nd gas tank was deleted along with the switch and extra fuel lines. Ash tray also gone! Radio deleted. Speakers deleted. Cruise control deleted. etc... However, when it snows, my heavy 1976 K20 is the 4x4 vehicle to drive. Thus, the heater core, for me, is essential. In Paul's case, a C10 would be a poor winter vehicle and I totally get why he is doing this. Keep going Paul! Make it your own.

Great job Paul!!!! Another step closer to being done... 😆 I feel your pain about the cold weather. Here in Ontario, Canada we seem to have winter back!! 😢😠 A few weeks ago it was beautiful and warm we turned off the heat in the house, I got out to work on the 67 C10. I started working on the rear stepside fender. Metal work, and welding , rust repair.

Looks like 2 years ago. Been binge watching some of your videos. Overall I enjoy your project you have talent and do pretty good work. Anyways, it is too late to help you with the this C/10 Build, but it may help others and your future builds? NOTE: Fiberglass Body Filler is made for boats and Corvettes, not for metal vehicles. (Says exactly that on the package.) It is definitely not for covering incomplete metal work, bad or half-a** metal work. Nor hiding any welding defects such as pin holes? All you are doing is covering up and creating "future rust areas." Maybe not in 5 years but at some point. Rust is the number one enemy of any paint job or body work we can do. Prevention is key from every step. Even painting the screw holes drilled in body panels after paint us always missed. Sorry wish I could tell you otherwise, but body filler fiberglass or not will NIOT prevent moisture or rust from taking root. Worker smarter not harder, take your time to do the extra work. Please challenge yourself to get your metal work welding and grinding as perfect as possible. More work in the metal saves adding filler on top to hide it. Body filler should NOT be applied thicker than 1/8" to 1/16" skim coat just to smooth it out. Only after doing quality metal straitening, filling, Patching, and welding. Never use body filler to fill holes, dents, or rusted and untreated rusted panels or metal. I hope this helps on future builds. Can't wait to see what is next. Thanks and best wishes...
