Re: Experiences harvesting cab body panels
I've been cutting good parts off cabs to fix other cabs for a while. If you ever find a nice enough cab to cut a rocker off of and it has a good roof and inner roof, do not cut on it. Use it.  I have only had 2 cabs out of all these trucks I had that had good enough inner rockers to reuse. The outers are usually always trash in some way or another.
As far as that A-pillar piece I'd find someone in your area cutting up a truck they have parted out. If you are on FB look up Tremayne Lee and see if he knows of any. He parts a lot of trucks, finds a lot of good parts, and is in the San Diego area. The trucks out there are usually pretty darn rot free unless rodents helped out the situation above the windshield.
