Re: looking for bare cab pictures

I have about a day's worth of work in just the stripping of the paint using 5 inch discs on a 1/2" grinder and a 2 inch discs on a "die grinder".. not sure the exact name of them.. but they are awesome!.. kinda like round "scotch brite" pads..
Its the replacement of cab supports, floor pans, foot wells, cowl posts, cab corners, dash center (was cut out for a CD player), big portions of the firewall, (was beat on with a big hammer to put in a Buick engine and cut out to change from factory AC heater box to standard heater), fixing 5 inch holes below the shoulder harness mounts where speakers were, replacing a major portion of the rear window lower lip, (was rusty under the rear slider window)
That has taken a couple of months of time..
Next I discovered after starting to strip the roof of paint and seam sealer I found some pin holes in the roof.. so it gets replaced too..
Why so much work you may ask? I guess its a sickness..
