Re: 49 5-Window Cab - Inner Panel Rust - Fix or Replace?
But get the patches on the bottom done and the structure repaired before you cut it up any more.

Re: 49 5-Window Cab - Inner Panel Rust - Fix or Replace?
Thanks, good point. I'm a bit skeptical that the doors are going to fit right now wo tweaking the pillars. Gonna do that first? Will then weld in replacements for what I've cut out first

Re: 49 5-Window Cab - Inner Panel Rust - Fix or Replace?
You want to do a "dance" with them all. Put the doors on, change the patches on the bottom, that is way more structural shape changing than the inner panel is. You can remove that (it's out of my cab right now) without making a big deal, the patches and structure of the lower cab is a different story, you want that right first.
