    Well now time for some (more) ugly....honestly I'm a bit in shock as I started disassembling the cab. I was able to get the seats out, unfortunately the drivers seat rails came right off the bottom of the seat frame with the most gentle of movement. The passenger rails came off in tact, but rails are totally rusted and non-salvageable.



    Started peeling back the carpet and this is the unfortunate result of a Florida hurricane flooding the cabin with salt water, complete with surprise sea shells inside....



    This just went from buying new metal, to buying an entire new donor truck for a cab swap. I really wanted to keep the original cab. Really disappointing.
