A common occurrence on the advanced design models is for the drivers door to snag something and over extend the opening of the door resulting in a vertical crease in the cowl. I have a 54 Chev 2 ton dump with this problem and not being an autobody man was wondering if this is easy to correct should I decide at some future point to paint the truck.

If the cowl is not rusted out, most of them are, a good body man may be able to "pull" it back out. If not, an outer cowl panel may be in order.....and be sure the door check is in good shape or it will swing wide and happen again!

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
