57 build

[pugs]

Well i had started a thread about my truck before(getting my truck today)


for those that remember. well things were coming along, welded a nova clip in, chevelle rear out back and the cab had new patch panel in. overall i just wasnt totally happy with it. I had picked up this 55 parts truck


for the front sheetmetal, after taking the clip off and cleaning out the inside and really looking over it, I decided that this cab was actually better and would take less time to get into shape then the original one. so at that point i started cytting out the patch panels i had inthe cab and reinstalled them on the 55 cab, plus i did have some other floor panel patches hanging in the garage

front cab mounts




driverside hinge pocket area(pass side is done now too)


there was some rust at top of the windsheild frame so i had cut a portion out of the other cab at the cowl area and tacked in place still need to do alittle welding and finish it off
