Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
went ahead and cut the bed front off...I knew when I pulled the bed I had some rust issues there at the lower front corners (bed is upside down in pics while im working on it)..luckily the bed floor support is in good shape..I'm gonna cut out the whole section all the way across that has rust and spot weld holes in it and replace with new metal...got to pick up some 16ga for the repair...ill coat it good with weld thru primer and add seam sealer when I'm done...should last a long time
that floor support sandwiched against the bed front was a water trap...hopefully the seam sealer will stop that..
