Cab corner repair

Post by Mercury100 »

The rear panels are available for repair. The front side of the rear cab corners are not available as repair parts.
What is the repair procedure for these panels?
Make them yourself?
Just weld in a flat repair panel?

I will look into getting some made.
Any interest in anyone needing some replacement panels?
I’m thinking of getting a long sheet made of the correct form and just cut off the length. Then just pinch flat at the bottom spot weld.

Ditto or find a donor and cut them out. That's the route I took. Old box trucks are good candidates.
