Re: Patch everything or swap cabs?

I would personally move the good dash to the good cab and paint it before I would tackle all the body work in the floors, cowl and corners. Lots of guys have successfully did the faux patina. I just delt with a minor redo on my step and the thought of getting the whole cab tweaked is not something I would want to tackle. Guess out west we are spoiled by relatively good cabs....

But if you decide to do the body work, brace it good and get the doors aligned first, then tackle the cowl, floors and corners.
