Unibody can you shoot me a link, I didn't see one for a Y-Block, maybe I just didn't know what to look for or one of the others is a cross and didn't mention the 292.

Thanks,
Darrell

I think so, but I'll let you know if it doesn't work out.

Frame Braces

Anyone have suggestion or leads on part #'s 5050, 5051 and 5135. I can probably patch mine up but if some good ones are available I'd be interested in them. Anyone tried making replacements? Thanks in advance.

Re: Powder Coat Frame?

Sounds like sandblast and paint are the general recommendation here. The estimate for powder coat was about $400 following the sandblast.

That is why I asked as it was somewhat affordable for me at that price.

Thanks for your input.

Powder Coat Frame?

So I talked to a shop about getting the frame on the '64 blasted and they asked if I wanted to powder coat it as well. Is this a good idea? If getting it powder coated should I remove the rivets and replace with bolts in order to remove the rust behind hangers, shock struts, crossmembers, etc and ge...

Re: Tennessee '64

New updates, I found a donor cab that is much better shape except for parts of the floor boards, a dented dashboard and section cut from back panel. Not bad for a couple hundred dollars.

Re: Tennessee '64

Pillars are rough, step is not as bad as it looks and risers are really only bad where the middle cab brace ummm used to be and can probably be patched. Both front cab mount bolts fell to the ground when I touched them and both front cab mounts are broken. I'm pretty sure a good head wind could have...

Re: Tennessee '64

I've got a potential lead on a toe board that may fix the floor pan to firewall issue. I Waiting for some more pics from seller but I hopeful. I have a little rust up into the firewall where the middle bracket comes down but I feel that is repairable.

Re: '64 Driver Side Toeboard

@The Big M: I was working on a computer at church last night and met the guy who owns one of the best Tool & Die businesses in the area. He said make me a pattern or bring what's left and I'm sure we can cobble something together. LOL I think that might be an option. Get something made up that f...

Haven't gotten the cab off yet to check under it, but the under the front clip and bed the frame is solid. I have crawled around under the cab and from what I can see the frame looks good. Yes, LMC has a complete floor for about $1,300 and that is under consideration as well. I have started adding u...

Re: '64 Driver Side Toeboard

Wow guys thanks for all the advice and suggestions. I know saving this cab will be a lot of work and I'd probably be better just finding another one to pop on top of it. However, as crazy as it sounds this is not only a rebuild but an opportunity for an old computer programmer ... to start trying hi...

Found a surprise in the cab

While pulling the floor mats, screwed in patch panels and garbage from the cab of the truck today, I found this jewel. Who would have expected it to survive this long. https://s20.postimg.org/6mrkyoh19/IMG_1945.jpg Anybody know how to decode these. I expect the 02 25 65 is the purchase date. To bad ...

The Cab

So today I decided to remove the screwed in sheet metal on the floor of the cab. ARRG, worse that I expected here. Left side: https://s20.postimg.org/hhvzxbj25/IMG_1939.jpg Rotted completely through at the cab mounts. Bolt for the cab mount fell out the bottom when I touched it. Right side: https://...
