I'll have to figure out what I'm going to do about the big dent in the back of the cab. It had the gas tank pushed in a bit.



Guess I'll get into that latter though.

 

Looking good! Too hot and dry in the summer and too cold in the winter to rust makes for good vintage iron.

Might need two people for the back dent. One with a rubber mallet, the other with a large block of wood or something as a hand anvil.

 

I like those old jeeps

 

That's a tough one. I left a lot of the dents in the back of my cab alone. They're easier to get to if you have the back window out. I'm not sure how the rubber is around the Windows but I'd guess they'll need replacing if they're original. The inside looks great! My floor was rotten all over. It was fun welding though!

 

Went thru your build Calvin. You did have a few rust issues. I'm hoping that when I get the fenders off I won't see and cab rust there.

 

A "few" rust issues. Yeah that's about right.

I'm impressed with your progress. Don't lose that motivation. Keep plugging away!

 

In case you decide to save some cashola on the seat this worked wonders for me: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...y-56-f500.html

 

Got the seat covers and other junk taken off today. Now to pressure wash the frame and paint it. Thanks for the link Calvin.

 

How is this build coming along, it's been awhile since you've added anything to this thread..?
