Got my cab off the frame



spot blaster some of the areas of concern and the concerns came into reality..



I completely blasted the cab but didnt get a pic because I was a little upset on the condition, the firewall to cowl area was the worst, Its primed at the shop now, might snap a pic if someone wants...

time to find a better cab!!!!

and I found one! blasted and off to a buddy for patch work(this one needs floor supports, inner/outer rockers, lower kick panel, cab corners) I may snap a few pics when I drop my other cab off at his place for reference if he needs it, or so use to cut pieces off of if he has to.

and I have my rear cab mounts from 4-5-6 chevy(never by from them again..) and my power steering adapter from captainfab(awesome guy to deal with).. I also have a vortec 350 and vortec-tbi intake.

I have sent about 15 trucks upto Vancouver and have a real decent 3/4 ton with very very little rust I will make you a deal on. The trip would be less than one rocker panel repair.
