Hey Sed. Yes the tool box is in good shape. Surprisingly the one on the current box is in good shape as well.

picture request

Hey Chris,

I'm in the process of fabbing a new firewall for my '73 SCS. Could you send me some close-up pics of the firewall, cab mounts, and cab bottom for reference? It's seldom that I can get a couple of good pics of the bottom of a truck cab.

Sure can. I don't know how good of a shot I can get of the cab bottom but the rest should be a piece of cake.

I'll be there again tomorrow so I'll do it then.

It is. Although the forklift has no brakes. The frame was sitting on some rims, the forklift bumped the front of the frame and it fell straight back off of the rims. All was good though.

I don't know. Maybe 400 or so. Pretty light with the forklift though.
