I started cutting out the rust on my cab today and wonder if anyone has pictures of a un-rusted cab? Mainly need the four underside corners.
Thanks,

If you want to take a ride to Middletown you can see the corners in person! I'll see if I can get a few pics but might be the weekend. I plan on working on my truck Sat and Mon.

Re: underside of cab pictures
I have some pictures here. http://www.leathernaturally.com/m37projectpagetwo.htm
Even shows some minor rust repair..... The good thing about the M37 cab is left and right side are mirrors of each other and therefore if you do cut one side out the other side can be used for reference.
I have since gotten the cab in a normal position and I measured both door frames and they were both the same messurement! The door evens fits...I was so happy!
Anyway don't know if this will help you but there you go.

k8icu,
Looks good. What did you do to make the indent for the cab mounting bolt in the floor?
Thanks,

Re: underside of cab pictures
@Gerry I didn't make a recess. I gave it a lot of thought and decided that when I go to mount it to the frame I will just use a carrage bolt and it should sit flush enough with the diamond plate to not be a bother to the foot. I had given thought to using a tie down plate welded into place, but I figured the carrage bolt would be easier.
