I recieved my cowl repair panels from Chevy Duty and am ready to get to work. I got the full outside piece that goes all the way to the soldered joint, and my question is-How do you go about removing the solder, do I just take a torch to it? Will that affect the base metal? I don't want to goof anything up. I'm sure I'll have questions about filler material later but I'll aross that bridge when I get there. Thanks.

I melted mine out with a propane torch. You shouldn't have to get it so hot as to warp steel.

Thanks Chuck. Your site is the one I go to for inspiration and how to stuff. It's been a big help. I'm using you idea for reusing the original column with the MII steering also.
