So I took the cab off the frame this weekend on my '51, and as guessed, pretty much the bottom 12 to 18 inches is more or less nothing but rust and rust holding more rust. About the only thing that isn't rusted is the seat platform. This is better than I expected considering it has been sitting outside in WI for the past decade or so.
What has been people's experience with the replacement sheet metal parts from the standard sources (LMC, Jim Carter,whoever else) in regards to quality and getting pieces to fit together? Am I better off just biting the bullet and getting the whole floor pan/firewall pieces or attempting to find salvageable pieces and mix in new pieces as needed?
