The Build Begins

Finally got truck into basement garage, had to flatten front tires to get enough clearance but we made it fit.

started to tear it down:

removed seats, carpet
removed both doors

Should have left the carpet, only thing between us and the ground not really that bad but bad enough.

One door hinge was tack welded to inside of door so had to remove hinge from door post. Found plenty of hidden rot, inside cab corners, floor ,under kick plates, inside steps had a cover over the holes.

Have a gentleman that has built a 58 show truck coming tomorrow to take a look and offer suggestions and guidance as to what we need to do next or what not to do.
On the up side headliner looks good and we found 35 cents,a bottle opener, and a keychain almost makes it all worth the effort. lol

Pictures included
First pic is of a pedal up near firewall on drivers side, would like to know what it is.
