They aren't too bad, I'm just on hold until I can save up the money to buy the cab supports and other peices before I weld things together. The inner rockers are about 1" too long, so I need to do some shaping, but I'm not even going to attempt that until I get the parts.

I dont blame you on holding off. While the cab is off...and it being a once in a lifetime restore...its good to make sure its done right. There was a guy in my neighborhood selling a 71 3/4 ton it had a nice paint job on it and was clean...he was asking 4800.00. I wasn't even considering buying it just was looking. Any-who I got under it to look at the floor boards....Bondo, Chicken Wire, and the front passenger cab support was rotted out, it was sitting on a piece of 2x4" hahha I was like wow my small rust issue on my rockers is nothing!
