It's common for the passenger side of the core support to rot out.. The main cause is over the years, leaking battery acid gets to it.. Looks like it's time for some serious restoration work to begin.. Core supports, cab supports, floor patch panels, frame brackets, rubber mounts ------ all are readily available...
