'55 International Pickup Metal/Body/Paint Work

I've had a couple guys on here ask me to post other project's I've worked on, so here it goes. It's a 1955 International R-112 Pickup that the owner brought to us to do the metalwork, bodywork, and paintwork. It doesn't have a ton of rust but the body is BEAT!! The owner had already fixed the rust in the floors himself and had taken the cab and all of the panels to be blasted and primed with PPG DP series before bringing it to us. Here's some pics of when it arrived. The owner already had it on the rotisserie which is a huge plus!


You can see some of the damage in the pics. The roof looked like it had been used as a dance floor, the back of the cab was pushed in in places, there was rust deep in the seam under the back window, and dents everywhere!
