OK Tom these should help if you are going soft top, understand the problem with rust in the cab a friend a few years back bought a wreck and i decided it would be good idea to have a hammer round from the inside , one strike and all i got was hoots of laughing and the rust man cometh. They are a major problem though if the rust has really set in inthe end i found a good cab from a laid up recovery version with a very good cab on it and we transposed that. The recovery when use was spectacular it had a Detriot diesel and a exhuast stack through the bonnet and would pull almost any type of truck, the jib was not as per the last photos i posted but a really stong affair resembling a mini T.F.L crane . No word of a lie when under full load it was not uncommon for the stack to glow. looked great in the dark
cheers
