Re: How much rust is too much rust for a project.....?
I had what i thought was a good cab intil I had it soda blasted. water was trapped in the drip rail and rusted out holes that ended up coming through the pilars and rusting them out worse than I expected. but I've already gone so far with this cab - theres no turning back.I found a cab with a nice roof and windsheild pilars and was hoping to do some type of swap???? hopefully?? does anyone have any advise or good pics on this? thanks

Re: How much rust is too much rust for a project.....?
I'd send you to 65sublimes thread here http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s....php?p=3211288 but it looks like his photobucket account went inactive- maybe someone who knows him can get him to log into his account and reactivate it?
He had some VERY good photos of a cab roof replacement

The truck is currently a big window, and is being replaced by a small window cab. I actually like the small window a little better. The only good thing I like about the big window is the extra appeal if I were to sell it.
