Truck update

Finally finished all of the chassis work. Brakes, lines, paint are all done now still have to locate a tank and weld in engine mounts.

I have moved to the cab and already replaced both floor pans. This weekend I will be doing a cab corner and trying to fab some curved metal top repair both lower cowls. Whn I finish that, I have to deal with some rust over both drip rails/rain gutters.
I am open to suggestions on the last one (except for covering with bondo)

The roof is probably one of the worst areas to have to deal with. I filled the majority of mine with lead, then used a fiberglass filler over that. The problem I had is that my rust didn't show till i started working on it. The paint was just about all that was left. Good luck~

Why don't you get a good cab and cut the roof off it and install it on yours. Sounds like you have already spent a lot of time on the rest of it.
