Cab The cab on this truck is what makes it pretty rare. Only 275 WC40 closed cabs were made and even less WC41's. The giveaway to them is the round, standardized gauges instead of Dodges normally odd rectangular ones.
I went to great pains not to modify this cab and have a total of less than 15 holes that weren't factory. I researched them and filled all the holes that people had added over the years. I did add a passenger side wiper that isn't correct for the Military as they only came with a drivers side. seat belts and seat base are the other holes added. I centered the steering column to the gauges without adding any holes, that took a while to plan out.
I was lucky to find this truck as it was rust free. It came out of Colorado and was amazing to me here in Ohio. Stuff is gone here in less than 10 years sometimes due to salt and humidity. Blew me away to be able to unbolt stuff nearly 70 years old and it not twist off.
I knew I had to do a lot of work because this thing had dents everywhere, Top of cab looked like the hauled telephone poles up there across a plowed field.. I had 12 layers of paint on it and at least 2 were brushed on.
The best thing I've found to strip off paint is Brite Strip wheels from Standard Abrasives. They are plastic and eat it right off with very little heat plus they cut the same from start to finish unlike gumming up sandpaper. Trust me, I tried a lot of different things. I strip the flat surfaces with the discs, then sandblast the nooks and crannies before doing the body work.
I made up a spinning jig that also doubles as a lift to install the cab. It mounts on the door hinges and latch area and is EXTREMELY nice to have when doing this. It enabled me to completely finish the bottom of the cab to the same standard as the outside.
This was another learn as you go thing as I had never done some of this before and was open to others ideas and suggestions. Learned a lot here. |
