Man I thought I did a lot of rust repair, but it looks like you ended up making your own cab. Great job by the way.

WOW!!! I would imagine this is not your first build. Maybe a welder by trade? Very excellent build so far and really like all the pictures you are providing.

It looks like you shaved the drip rail on the cab, any chance you could share some info/pics on that? Thanks for posting the suicide doors, I have been waiting for someone on the forum to do that.

I did shave the drip rails, I don't have any pictures of when I did it though, sorry. They're spot welded on, I just cut the welds loose removed the drip rails and welded up holes. I think these cabs look much better with them removed
