This is true.

Well yesterday was an exciting day for me. Finally took the cab off. Went without incident other than the front mount bolts not wanting to come out of the floor. A lot of rust. One of them was almost rusted halfway through.

After the cab was off I cutout the manual trans member. Then it was outside to start sandblasting.

















I got in one round of sandblasting before this happened.



It was a good day. No rain predicted for the next 3 days so hope to get the frame all blasted and the cab is next.
