Any problems storing a cab this way?

I have my cab off and am doing some work to the underside. There anything wrong with it laying on its back window?? There will be some cardboard down, and no there are no windows in it.. Anything wrong with this???

I would build a brace to go from the hinge pillar to the rear pillar if you intend on keeping it like that more than a few hrs at a time.
While I am sure it could support the weight of that heavy firewall, why take the chances in something shifting or buckling out?

on cement cardboard will absorb moisture out of the concrete and it in turn will be transfered to the cab

so would a piece of 1x1 square tube from pillar to pillar one on each side be enough????

I basically just need to do some quick welding, beat on the floor in a few spots.... then expoxy and undercoat it down there... i dont want to have to keep layin it flat, then lifting it, then laying it flat.. ahaha over and over..
