my bent cab revisited

After beating, pushing, twisting and some tremendous heat terry [my bud] and I have my cab closer to straight. The driver’s side door shuts straight and clean, but the passenger side is still tweeked. If I line up the roof line and door top the door has a hell of a gap at the rocker. It I line up the hinges the door overlaps the b pillar and has a ¾” gap at the roof. But if I line up the body lines the hinges WILL NOT BOLT. I may need to redrill or worse wield the hinges. I have had to cut away some if the a pillar to compensate for all this. But I hope when it’s done it wasn’t all for not. But as a back up I am still looking for cabs. So keep me in mind. I’m short of funds because all this so a few hundred is all I can go.

I feel your pain

I feel your pain, mine was rolled (by the p o) and needs to be straightened. I will be doing my best to straighten it until I can get a new one. Good luck with it.
