Hi there, nice to see you over here in the 48-60 board. I've heard about your work for a long time, so a u-tube video is something I would definitely enjoy. Please post the link for it here if and when you decide to make it.

Ya. Post it up.
Ive got your cab corners on my 51 f1 cab. Worked great.
Unfortunatly the cab is still sitting in the corner of the garage though.
Someday ill work on it again.

Have not done it yet, but here are photos. my cab corners are the only ones with the correct bend around the frame and have the floor lip. none of the others have this.
Bought them all, returned them, that's why I got a 30 ton press and made dies for the corners and fender patches
