I'm trying to stick with original metal as much as I can, have a cab that has donated most of its usable parts and the rest is swiss cheese or junk. Just thinking it may be better than stampings from China. | | | | | Joined: May 2015 Posts: 11,028 Housekeeping (Moderator) Making a Stovebolt Bed & Paint and Body Shop Forums | | Housekeeping (Moderator) Making a Stovebolt Bed & Paint and Body Shop Forums Joined: May 2015 Posts: 11,028 | You could theoretically make cab corners from flat metal, but it would be a lot of work. The roof corners would at least get you a good start on the profile. I just eyeballed the top and bottom of my cab and the contours don't look that different. Can't hurt to try. Let us know how it turns out for you.
