    Cab rebuild

    @Jrgunn5150, this is how bad the rust is ,typical mid-west. Possibly stupid question, do the mount supports have to be welded?

    Cab rebuild

    I'm close to several place that will pay really good money for welding skills, my Uncle does the welding for robots to learn or something like that so maybe he could teach me. Thanks!! I'll definitely look at them! That's beautiful !!!!!!

    Best spot for tach?

    I suppose but stickers, racing stripes, and loud mufflers all add horse power. And I like the green, makes you stand out. Just like my truck stands out!
