This is my new project. may look harmless now but in good time it will be a monster.
I bought it a few weeks ago knowing that there was a bit of rust in the rear, not totally aware of the extent.
After we removed the "dock" from the back we found a lot more than expected
The whole frame was rotted from the cab back, apparently the only thing holding it together was the "dock". So now the project has changed direction. we will cut the frame off at the cab and build a new rear half.
we then built a new frame, much stronger than the old.
and welded the new frame in place
Update December 08
The truck is now back on all 4 wheels and it runs beautifully.
Still looking for a replacement box.....
