Right now, the tentative plan is to prep the cab for media blasting which includes adding some 1x1 braces and gutting out non-structural sections of the old floor. I also need to slice up the bed and tack it back together. Then off to the blasters. That's where you come in. I'll give you heads up when the time comes. Hopefully, you can bring LBT and we can load the frame, cab, bed and assorted pieces on a trailer for transport. I feel hamstrung because I no longer have a hauler. (Which is the raison d'etre for CRLS.)

After I get all the parts back, I'll post the step by step on the floor / firewall replacement. As slow as I am, it may be a while before that happens.
