The cab is going to chill for a short while here on the floor. All in all, the cab is in good condition. Very little rust and a hand full of Bondo on one corner. Although purchased from Northern California this truck must have been Joe Dirt's weekend hauler. The 351C had a custom home compliments to a pair of 1" washers on either side that made an engine cross-member sandwich. Anywho, it was sent out to the sandblaster only to uncover more cracks and desire to make new frame rails. But were in it too deep for not keeping the frame. So a compromise was made and more stock cross-members were ditched, most of the holes filled, and I boxed the rails most of the way back. Whats left of the rails are now on the table, jigged up for cross-member fab.
