Got dem old Cab Corner blues

 Well,  I am up to my fifth welding guy. Four have promised me the earth and have given me the moon. And I don't mean the moon up in the sky. I mean the moon you get when someone bares their arse at you in contempt. Four miserable souls looking for a purpose in life and have nothing better to do than make promises they cannot keep. 

But all is not doom and gloom because out of the horde of idiots, I have found a really helpful guy. And it was so unexpected. He has provided encouragement right from the start and to Rob, I owe a huge debt of gratitude. It was Rob who told me to hurry up and get into things and it was Rob who made such a great start on the front cab corner. 

I now have it virtually ready for welding in.

The other side is a different proposition and I have had a good go at removing it. Sure, it wasn't a pretty sight, and I am still working on it, but the other cab corner is nearly out. Bad news is, there is plenty of rust on this side, and this is the worst of it. 

Hard to imagine that is a salvageable part. Better check out the video to see how it came to this! 

There is a big video of my adventures here

And here is the current state of the truck 

This week I hope to get that other cab front completely ready for welding and put some 2k on the roof. I am also working on stripping the bonnet and doors and hitting them with 2k as well. So, quite a busy couple of days ahead.
