Re: Patch everything or swap cabs?

So I'm signing up for a MIG welding class...something tells me patching this cab is going to be an epic journey full of money and cusswords.

Don't forget to make your wife a couple of plant stands as early mig welding projects. Those were the first things the AG shop teacher had the beginner welding kids build after they learned to run a bead. Moms always tended to pay for them. I have one I bought when one mom had too many kids in welding class at the same time.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.

Check out the build thread on my '57.

I posted detailed photos of all my patch panel installation and metal work. It doesn't start until post #43.
