Thanks. Really, I figured how hard could it be? I just did a lot of planning, research, and a WHOLE lot of measuring and double checking before using scalpels. Gonna follow bcron's lead on removing the inner roof skins to treat the rust and soundproof, but before that, I'm following another RCC thread where the guy made a one piece fiberglass headliner. I figure, I'll make the headliner before I cut the holes, then I won't even worry about making metal panels to patch the holes in the roof. I can just cover it with the headliner. Maybe even mount a few speakers since I'll have the access.

Five years going on six cancer free. I was driving a loaded log truck when I had my first seizure. Lucky it only affected from my shoulders up and I was able to get the truck stopped.

Sounding good. A lot has been learned since my mom had it in '83. Sometimes, as 50 approaches, I feel like I've been seized from the shoulders up .

So now, to our health and to crew cabs!

Not making much progress. Uncovered it today, wire brushed some rust, sprayed the rust with some Must for Rust and covered it back up. Hope to get the cab into my stuffed garage so I can get some work done on it this winter.

Looks like a nice truck...but not a fan of the purple and white paint scheme.

apparently, the owner of the truck agreed with you:

"He originally painted his truck white with purple Power Wagon style accents. His daughter loved it, but Troy hated it. He then painted it a second time, just plain white with black accents."
