Soooooo, I had a bead on a rust free A/C cab.........negotiated price.......dude stop responding to texts/emails.................weird

So unless one falls in my lap the current plan is to repair the cab in my garage.

Initially I was only considering the cost of a rust free cab vs the cost of repair panels and a MIG welder..........after thinking about it some more I realized there are other benefits to repairing my current rusted cab over doing the swap besides just experience......a big one is available storage space......I really don't have much, so with the cab attached to the chassis it allows be to work on it without having to come up with extra space to store all the parts once I take them off.......I live in an HOA so outside storage is a no go here.
