Cab Removal


Daniel L

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I just recently removed the cab on my 1947 plymouth and replaced it with my better cab. I got this extra cab now and was wondering if anyone knew a good place that would buy a cab like this in the NJ area? Or if it's a good idea to just scrap it? I am getting impatient with the cab sitting in my backyard collecting dirt. If anyone could help or give some info that would be helpful.

If it is a car body, is it stripped?  Steering column, doors, dash, etc. all gone?  Where in NJ?  Pictures?  If not stripped, would you consider removing parts, or is it all or nothing?

 

Edit: Thought to check your profile, and see that you list Millstone as your location.

The body is completely stripped. I have all the doors and everything off the car. I'm in Millstone NJ. Also let me find some pictures.

If it wasn't good enough for you, I doubt anyone else would want it...scrap it!

The cab is not too bad. I just had a lot better one that saved me a ton of money.

Terrible advice......why don't you practice on it.....metal work, paint skills, welding....get better at using fillers or improve your sanding skills.

Scrapping should be the last resort.

given the one constant, having room to store it, this idea presented by Frank is excellent advice.  Not many folks get the chance to practice on an actual body before attempting a complex metal procedure....beside.....there is still that odd chance you may need something this body can donate.
