I am using bedsides from a '67 stepside to replace the bedsides on a '54 3100. I need to fill all the holes where the '67 fenders bolted up. Is there a vendor that offers weld in plugs for this or do I have to hand cut the plugs from scrap panels that I have?

Get a piece of copper for a back up (atleast 1/4" thick). Fill the holes with weld. The weld won't stick to the copper and the backside will be perfectly flat. Grind the face of the weld flat. It's easier than you think. You can fill holes up to 1/2" dia.

you dont need a piece of copper 1/4 thick, a common copper pipe smashed flat will do just fine
