Did some finish work on the trans tunnel fabrication, wanted to make it removable so took quite a bit more time to get the fit right but I’m happy with it. Need to figure out what I want to use as a gasket or sealer for final install down the road. Shaped and welded an outer flange, drilled and secured one at a time then welded the nuts to the flange and stitched flange to the firewall.
Took out the rear and corner windows no issues and cleaned up the flanges. Moved the cab outside and wire wheeled the firewall and interior to prep for rust encapsulator. Very dirty job, lol.
When I removed the brace from the firewall and the upper cowl bracket I found an issue. Looks like it had some sort of lock on it and was pried out of it. I’ll check the other cab so see if it’s in tact and rob Peter to pay Paul so to speak. It’s really stiff but I’m sure it can be fixed if I need to go that route.
Plan on doing a parts order Friday for weatherstripping etc.. and going to check with a glass company I’ve used in the past to see what they would charge for the back and front glass, if within reason I’ll source locally instead of buying online.
Thanks for the windshield install info, I’ll check it out.
