Problem #3 -- big problem... there was A LOT of bondo in the pillar. I'm not sure how to go about fixing this, except by cutting out the pillars from my other cab and using them. I do not want to fill it all back in with bondo. Also the the floor in this can has been replaced as well as the cab corners and the PO did not align it right.. both cab corners flare out on the back wall of cab... It is something that my OCD won't allow, so I must fix this.

Also attached is a pic of the CAB i will be cutting sections from. Though it doesn't have any bondo in it.. it is not as solid as this one. Floor is gone, cab supports are gone and the top has a slight bend in it... But I believe I can get what I want from it and not have to use a scud of bondo to cover up damage.
