So here is the start of cutting up the donor roof.


This is the underneath of the top roof I cut out.. Look at all that rust. This piece is going to the scraper.


This is how I plan to put the roof one the cab. I need to grind down some of these spot welded seems and get it all ready to be added to the cab. Its going to be a long journey but I thinkthis is the simplest way to do this. everything will be a spot weld seem to hold this one besides right below the window.


This is the rust that was above the front windsheild on the donor cab.. I only post this pic for people that might have this issue in their truck. I am scraping this piece from the donor cab.


Here is the back window from the donor cab ready. besides making my cut straighter below the window. I cut this area a little long due to the fact this will be a weld and the line up from this roof to my cab needs to be perfect. I want to get my cab ready before I make the final cut on this one.


Here is the inside close to being ready.. I still have to grind some of the pinch weld seams so they are ready to graph onto my cab.


Look at all this rust on the underneath of this roof. I will need to treat this with something as well as the inner roof on my cab.. I heard viniger and water works well to neutralize rust so it will probably be a wire brush followed by alot of vinegar then follow but a rust controling paint.


Also tools used- drill with spot weld bit, air chisel, angle grinder with cut off wheel and sawzall. Get ready for ton of spot welds to drill out.
