Re: Scott's '51 Build
Fixing the cab now. Took out the passenger floor and opened the cowl on that side. All the usual rust I guess at the rocker, bottom of the hinge pillar, inner, outer, and middle cowl, and floor. I bought a small chunk of a parted out cab to get come of the parts and minimize using replacement panels.
I ended up replacing the bottom third of the middle cowl piece and patching a few areas of rust here and there. Also, dissected out a piece of the rocker with the bottom of the hinge pillar to patch back into the cab. Removed all the rusty stuff, welded the front under floor support to my new rocker section, then fitted and tacked to the cab. I cleaned and primed the middle cowl and need to get the outer cowl off, then get the floor in and work my way out.
