[InsideOut]

While they were busy finishing up the GT on Saturday...I was drilling out all of Birdy's rivets. Since I was the one taking the pictures...there's none of me ~

The reason we are replacing Birdy's 3'x12' streetside panel is that it has a big scratch down the entire side, lots of rough holes from the old water heater, water filler & antenna and some black rub marks that make her look like an appaloosa.

1) Birdy's streetside panel Before
2) Removing the wheel well trim
3) After all the rivets were drilled, Rob worked on breaking the seal of 50+ year old butyl rubber sealer between the seams
4) The old panel cleco'd into place, waiting to be removed.
5) Good timing! Jim & Chris came by again to see how we were doing...just in time to lend and hand with removing the panel
6) Ta Dah! It's off!!!
7) Not much to the ribs...that's it!
8) Lunch time...view from the deck
9) The old panel ~
