Have finished the rear flange of the cab by bead rolling the shape of the patch panels, welding new metal onto the inside rear floor, using Cleco fasteners to hold copper backing behind the welds, then plug welding the flange (copper rich weld-through primer used in the plug welded flange).

Decided to replace the inner/outer, firewall/kick panel edges. Used bending brake then shrinker/stretcher to form the bend.
