NO JOE IT'S NOT. IT WAS PAINTED PROBABLY 10 YEARS AGO. COULDA FOOLED ME THOUGH. A COUPLE OF THE CAB MOUNTS ARE ROTTED TO THE POINT OF HAVING A FEW DIME SIZED HOLES IN THEM. I HAVEN'T MADE UP MY MIND TO EITHER REPLACE THE WHOLE CAB, OR JUST WELD NEW CAB MOUNTS ON. I DO HATE MESSING WITH RUST. IT DOES SEEM LIKE A NICE OLD TRUCK THOUGH. THE FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS IS TO INSTALL POWER STEERING. IT HAS "ARMSTRONG STEERING" ON IT NOW, & I'M KINDA GIMPY.

If you're considering replacing that cab, I'm going to have to go ahead and say you spent too much time out in that Nevada sun. My opinion could be changed by further photographic evidence of the neccessity of the cab swap, though.

I wish you all the luck in the world finding another cab in HALF as nice condition anywhere east of the Mississippi river, possibly the Rocky Mountains. (not saying they aren't out there, just not real common... and priced accordingly when you do find one)
