Re: Cab damage

With the damage you're mentioning, you're right, you probably are better off with a better cab, especially given your location, as you should be able to locate one that needs minimal work. You're intent is there. Save as much from the original truck as you can (door panels, seat, steering column/wheel?) and move on.

I have my dads 1967 Pontiac Firebird and it needs an entire front clip, doors, rear quarters, and floor. After all that's replaced there won't be much left of "dads" car, but the intent is there.

If there's a new floor, inner/outer rockers, cowl, and roof, what's left of the original cab anyway? The back wall and door jams?
