Re: '64 rustbucket longbed former farm truck

Wow, You've really come along ways.
Your welding/body skills have gotten way better too.

For welding tips I check out Jody. He has a gazillion videos but something may be useful.

Thanks for the compliments, this truck has been a real learning experience for welding/fabricating, which was exactly what I wanted when I bought it.

Re: '64 rustbucket longbed former farm truck

Got the new cab tilted on it's back, and started digging into the underside. Outer rockers are fine, but are going to be destroyed getting them off to fix the inner rockers and lower front pillars. Also found rust in all four cab braces, floors in front outer corners, cowl vents, & cowl panels below vents. Also found out the cab corners *were* replaced, but done very badly and covered with bondo. Those are coming out too, to be done right.












Its still better than my other cab. I have everything to fix it except 1 cab brace & the lower front pillars. I'm going to form the patches for the cowl vents as those are invisible under the fenders.
