Re: Cab rust

mongo is right. The metal there is so thin that you will be chasing it all over, even on low heat. You will need to buy a cab corner. General practice is to replace only as much of the original sheet metal as needed - don't use the entire patch panel. I remember replacing the cab corners on my dad's 64 and it had a lot less rust than yours and we replaced a tiny spot and I ended up chasing the metal around.
