I finally had the opportunity to start the first metal repair on Stella. After removing the rotted door pillar and inner cab corner tab, the support brace was exposed so i could drill out the rot and weld in a patch. Was good to finally start putting new metal back in. Now i need to finish removing the rest of the rot from the inner cab corner and install new cab corner and door pillar patch panels.
