Looks like a great project, and should make a good DD in the process! :thumbs:

Why buy new when you can restore?

Why are you fiberglassing the cab corners?

Nice truck. I like that Red Copper Metallic.

You can see the edge of the big rust hole all along the bottom.

The rust creeped a long ways under the "perfectly good" paint. This is where it pays to make sure you get it all before applying any paint or rock guard. Ive still got lots of work to do on the first cab corner, I havent started the second one yet. I've enlisted some help from a friend who has some experience with fiberglassing and he has the next 2 days off work so we'll be attacking this after im done work for the day. So expect more peektures!:tmc:
