What Kind of Tool, Besides Your Hands

[magwakeenercew2jh]

Well, missing the '72 has me now (as of yesterday) with a primo "all Early Classics" rolling chassis for a 71 SB, a bed, two cabs, and a complete (hahaha!...when is it ever complete?) front end for a '71. The 68 cab that's sitting on the chassis is the one I'm going to use, but the rusted '71 has an air cab and good glass, etc. So, I'll be using it as a donor. My first task, strip the rusted out '71cab of its goodies. And then call the salvage man.

My first problem is trying to get the window trim out without bending it. I have to pull it from both front and back of both cabs, so I need some help. Any suggestions would be great. Besides "Take it slow!" I can do that. But I really don't know how to approach this properly.

I hope the truck turns out close to as good as my last build. That '72 made it into March of '04 Classic Trucks....Okay, only the "Readers Ride" section. But they gave it a nice spread.

I'll send pics of the new pile of parts soon. And I REALLY appreciate any help.

Here's a couple of little ones of the now-long-gone '72.
