Finishing the floor! I had rot right into the transmission hole so I first reinforced the hole with a piece of 1/4" rod.
The filler piece is ready to go in.
Here all the pieces are together and welds ground down.
Primed up and ready for action.
With the floor done I finished up the front cab corner. Fitting the filler piece first.
Tacking into place.
All little more welding...
And bam!
Now I was a little leery about this next part, but it turned out to be easier than I anticipated. I'm referring to the extreme rot above the windshield.
Looking pretty nasty. So what to do, but start cutting!
I'm replacing the whole upper windshield frame with 1.5 x 3" tube. I'll be adding the lip for the gasket to be spot welded on later.
Not a show restoration, but way better than it was.
One down, one to go.
Bam.
All finish welded.
On the inside I have cleaned the edges up, added some gussets, and reattached the interior light bracket.
More to come...
