"Rust"oration Work
I have to wait for my paycheck to catch up to my credit card before I can start to work on my cab, so I got caught up on a few "need to do" things this last weekend... like the rusted inner fenders. More pics in my gallery.

bassn1,, I just finished the inner fenders and lower fender repair on my 58. I know exactly what you're going thru. I have been putting off the cab and floor boards for months now. I can't hide any longer.
Great job, I am inmpressed

Nice work on those inner fenders. Checked out your gallery, looks like you lucked out with a pretty solid looking truck. I used the Eastwoods system on my frame also,the rust converter looks to be a very durable product.Keep up the excellent work and of course keep us posted on your progress.

I bent it over the existing fender before I cut it out for the patch.
I'm still in the practice mode on stuff you don't see untill I feel I'm good enough to attempt the actual body work. I might drag out the cab this weekend and remove the glass and do a little paint stripin' I'm almost afraid to find what lies under the old paint and primer.

I need to get started on some of my patch work myself. Seems like I keep hoping one day to come home from work and a miracle has happened and some how everything somehow got all patched up. To be honest I'm actually am looking forward to doing it , I just got to find the time. Of course if someone like Foose wants to steal it I won,t mind.
By the way looks like you got a great job going.
