I like how you have prepared everything for body repairs. You have reminded me of steps I have seen elsewhere, but would probably have forgotten.
I have a ‘50 3100 that I am in the “tear it apart stage” of a frame up restoration. When I tackle the cab repairs, you’ve reminded me that I need to have the cab bolted back to the frame, and the door openings braced to maintain integrity before I start cutting into the rusty bits.
Thanks for taking the time to document your truck project. It may help you, but it really helps us.
