Roostre's 1967 C20

I finally got a couple of other projects cleared up and was able to get back onto the truck project for a little while last night. I patched a couple of holes that I managed to punch into the back of the cab when I was removing the floor. It's not the most exciting, but it needed to be done and it is progress. Now I need to clean the rust off of the mating surfaces and prep the floor. The plan is to use 3M structural adhesive to bond the floor back into the rest of the cab. Originally, I was going to use a HF spot welder and spot weld it back in, but the floor being complete has the rear crossmember in it. Because of the crossmember, I can't get the spot welder electrodes around the rear seam. I was going back and forth on if I was going to weld the floor in or bond it in, and this finally made the decision for me. The adhesive has rust inhibitors, so the cab won't rust in the seams like the original; that's good. So I need to clean up the bonding areas, get the adhesive, and then line up a friend or 2 to help me. The goal is to get the floor in before the weather gets too cold to properly set the adhesive.

Here's a picture of the patches tacked in.
