Re: My back yard build

Okay, that first pic was a shocker and I thought I was going to need a tetanus shot but there has to be a starting point. From a distance that new cab looks like it will save you some labor in rust removal. I'm in for the build and wish you the best.

Posted via Mobile Device. The new cab has rust on the rockers and cab corners so I will just join titles and use the new cab. I was able to remove the cab, clean and paint. It's not going to be a full restro just a good running truck, may go with a 5.3

The Cab didn't come off in the most conventional way,but it's got to be done. I will attempt to put the new cab on tomorrow I think I have a plan to get it on the frame.

Both front driver side and passenger side floors are rusted out. Back half is in good shape,also front roof is rusted out but back side is good. I will give any part of the old cab away if it can be picked up or shipping payed. I willPost pics when I get home.
