I'm working on a 55 Willys pickup in similar condition to yours and find these videos incredibly helpful. Its always nice to see someone do this ahead of you and using their experience enhance your own. Thanks for posting these videos, I look forward to each episode and find myself referring back to your work often to help me with my project.

@@kjohn1626 It's great to hear your getting some value from my videos. I have benefitted the same way from other guys like @tumbleweed_garage and @AntiqueCarsandStuffposting work on their Willys truck projects. Thanks for the comment.

*Superb work Tim!* 😎👍 Always like seeing how you make what you need out of scrap steel you save. 🔧

Thanks Zane! It's cheaper and faster to keep a good assortment of odd and end steel. Turns out I just happened to hang on to the right mix for this project.

Thanks! It's the old eating and elephant approach. I try to get something done every day. Even on days when I can only find 30 minutes, I'll wire wheel a small part and get some paint on it.

Nice work. Unless your going for some type of original I would suggest you weld the rockers completely. There is not much structure to these cabs and the more you weld the stronger it will be. I replaced the rockers with tubing for strength.😊

Thanks. I'll give it some thought. Stronger is always better. I am going for an original look, but I'm not worried about making changes where it makes sense.

for future reference. when you look at the different shades of rusted area you can see . the really reddish areas need to be replaced. may look solid but are not.
