Hi Rich,
I have the same truck as you. It's my birthyear truck that I've always wanted and I'm putting my hands on every part of it. I just pulled the cab off the frame with a home-made lift and I'm excited to be working on the cabin that's now sitting on a dolly I made for it, in the comfort of my garage. I don't have a fancy shop.
I'm staying as original as possible with this resto and I'm excited to hear the support in this thread for the idea of doing so with these old trucks.
Congrats on the truck and best of luck with this project. You'll find lots of help on here and some original parts if you need any. The project will take a while but how do you eat an elephant? As you get closer to the finish your heart really gets to pounding!
Jerry
