A little from this weekend:
The passenger side was quite a bit quicker to do. Fewer holes in the floor to patch, and the outer cowl was in a lot better shape than the other side. I only have to patch in a small piece at the bottom, though the back side of it will get POR 15 on it before the inner panel is welded in for good.
On to the pics:
Here I patched a small piece where the floor is folded over the rocker:
And a small area that was rusted through on the floor. This is why I said in the beginning this was a good cab especially being from Iowa:
Inner panel all fitted up:
And lastly, I removed the "gills". Although they look pretty cool, they also allow a direct line for water and wasps to get into the cab. I found out the wasps part of that the hard way the first time I pulled it in the garage. The heater apparently was a very suitable place to build nests...and I used an entire can of brakleen to make sure it wasn't suitable any longer.
Still more work to do on this side, as I'll also be closing up the hole in the kick panel from the heater too. More to come....
