72 Cab Work

[OldYeller72]

I live in north Texas about a stones throw from the OK border.
I own a 72 LWB Fleetside P/U. I have had the truck for 4 yrs. I paid $700 for the truck running. I got it home 4 yrs ago and started working on it and did the front suspension and have the the rear suspension components but havent installed them yet. I stopped working on the truck 2 years ago when I was tired of rolling around in the dirt instead of a nice concrete floor.

So I recently built my new shop and I now have my truck in the shop and started clearing the cab and removing all of the inner parts. to my dismay I found so much rust in this truck, that I am not sure I want to continue doing the project. I own 2 small business's and also work a full time 8-4 job. My time is very limited to really work on the truck.

So I am debating on "Do I want to continue" or Do I want to see if I can locate someone to do the work at my shop for me. I am 45 yrs old and have a full plate of stuff and while I have owned 2 street hot rods (fully built by me) and one strip only car (built by me) back in my younger years. I am feeling like I want to pay someone to come and do the work for me now. I know that its cheating to have others do your dirty work, but I just dont have time and I want to see this project through. All the prior builds I have done, really havent required as much body work as this cab will and to be honest I am not trusting myself to get it right. I look through all of these threads on this great site and think "Damn do I want to do all of this?" I have watched countless videos and just am not sure.

Is there anyone relatively close to my area that would be willing to earn some extra cash? I have all the tools to do this with and if I dont have something I will go buy it. I would just find a cab but they are so ridiculously priced, I just want to fix this one. I have started removing small areas of the floor to see how bad stuff is. I have all of the patch panels to complete the job at hand.

The repair will consist of the following:

Driver & Passenger for all pieces listed below

Front Floor Pans
Front and Rear Cab Supports
Outer Floor Extensions
Kick Panels
Lower A Pillar
Rear Pillar
Inner & Outer Rockers
Cab Corners

Now I am sure your asking "Why didnt you just buy the complete floor?"
Because I have been accumulating parts for 4 yrs and honestly didnt know the floor was in the shape it is in. Never pulled the floor mat back to see all of the rust until I put the truck in my shop. I knew it needed inner and outer rockers but as you guys know when you start removing pieces you find rust in areas you didnt expect. So it is what it is..I would like to see if anyone can cut and replace the panels in my shop? Long shot to ask but I really want to keep this truck..the chassis is not rolling and the cab is still on the frame. So taking it somewhere is just not what I want to do when I have all it takes here.

I was always told "It never hurts to ask, the worst that can happen is nobody responds or they just say NO"
BTW this can be done in small pieces...it doesnt have to be done all at once..

Thanks for your time
