I’m not sure if any of this is useful to anyone but if someone wants something off this piece of cab you can have it for the cost of shipping.

How does the radio hole look on it?

Unfortunately the radio hole needs to go in my truck. I bought this just for some metal around the windshield so I can fix my truck. No one told me when I bought my truck that they rust from the top down in Oregon!

Also, do

you guys in Oregon just use your lumberjack axe to chop the radio holes bigger?

Mine was done by a Maple Syrup loving Canadian before I got it.
And yes, it rusts from the top down as my truck can attest too.
It lived in Canadia-land and then moved to the Oregon coast, so salt and more salt.
Now it leads a pampered life at my house, well with a teenage driver.
I guess he is testing the mechanical limits of the truck, but there will not be anymore salt.
:cheers:

No kidding!
I got a happy Oregon truck and the ONLY rust is around the windshield! ONLY rust anywhere. Hell, the Undercoating and paint on the underside of the body and wheel wells still looks like new almost, cowl, perfect, floorboards better than perfect, cab corners and rockers like new.... I have a couple cab pieces scrounged up already for the surgery. I blamed it on the roof holes for a visor that's been on it forever, but if this is common, maybe it's the liberal tears rusting them out....only good explanation left....

I had the guy send me pictures of all the places Michigan trucks rust so imagine my surprise when he met me at the airport with the truck. I had sequoia needles packed in the cowl and bottoms of the fenders just to keep everything nice and damp at all times.

Actually, to Catboxes point, coastal trucks may get a little briney, but that's a super small %, IMO.
If I had to guess, west of the Cascades, it's from the constant barrage of rain and/or pine needles and the slime that grows on them, never drying out around and in the notoriously leaky windshield gaskets, where as the rest of the truck is perfect. Very little UV damage, very little salt/mag. Probably none back in the day at all. Now they mag the roads here anytime it gets close to frosty to keep the no drivin, um "folks" rubber side down because they're too dumb to realize humidity freezes at 32 degrees too. But then they get a constant undercarriage wash for the next 2 weeks straight until the next cold "dry" snap.

We are almost strictly rock salt where I'm at unless the county is particularly poor. Some counties will only plow on weekdays and put sand down on the ice that was created from driving on the unplowed roads. It's good times.
