Gotta formulate a new Plan B....
Is there an SOP for rebuilding/restifying one of these trucks? I'm down to having to do it with my son. Okay, we have some mechanical experience but no body experience. I have a guy who will do the cab, off of the chassis. It's already on a dolly, so that's good. The chassis still has the old cab, but it's swiss-cheesed as far as the firewall is concerned. It's an air cab with an uncut dash.
The replacement cab is a non-air cab, but that's okay. I like running with the windows down. Has anyone ever soda-blasted a chassis? I don't want to use sand.....but I have to clean up the chassis before the cab can be reinstalled. Any pointers for me? Books? I already have the assembly manual, and a factory shop manual. I guess I'm looking to learn from the mistakes that others have made that they will talk about and hopefully steer me away from making.
