Stella received some much needed attention today. I trimmed the step/rocker to fit the existing slot. The fit is just where i want it. Fitting it now helps assure my gaps will be correct after I install all the vertical patch panels. Next i removed spot welds for the outer cab corner where it attaches to the pillar and the inner cab corner. Lots of finagling on getting to all the spot welds. The next task is to cut and remove the pillar to give access to inner cab corner repairs. Another 5 hour day and I’m exhausted.
