Re: Some Cab Questions
As far as the data plate, that's going to likely be fun to try and clean up. I'd drill out the rivets and let it soak for a while (like days) in soapy water. Hopefully the paint used will soften up and you can slide it off with a fingernail. There are probably dozens of recommendations but if water doesn't work I'd start with mild paint removers like acetone... you're trying to take the silver off and leave the green. I want to kick guys in the nuts who are too lazy to take the time to mask these things off... it'd take about two minutes to mask this off.

Re: Some Cab Questions
Thanks for all the replies.
Would you consider the tunnel pictured a "high hump" I can put the other section on and get a picture tomorrow |

Re: Some Cab Questions
I've got the data plate soaking, we'll see in a couple days.
Looks like I have a bolt in low hump. Apparently a 63 item (mine is a 63). May have been a tall hump originally I'm going to drill the welds out and bolt the front section in. Any thoughts on this hole, rear of passenger floor, near the tunnel. Fuel related? |

Re: Some Cab Questions
You can buy a replacement data plate at Classic Parts if that one doesn't strip off/
