Re: Ian's Tennessee Honey '64 Short Box Step-side - England

Before I can finish the passenger side floor I need to deal with the rear cab support first. The tin worm had been gnawing on it a little.

Rather than replace the whole thing I thought it would be better to replace the rusted out bit, that way I could save the mounting flanges which are the datum points for the inner rockers and rear pillar.

I cut out the rusted part plus a bit to get back to good sound steel
