what about cutting that section of a wreck and welding it on to yours??
Looks like a lot of work to try and shape another bit of steel to fit.

deff cut the bit you need out of a wreck too hard to get it right otherwise....

most wreckers will cut it out for you

Hey mate.

Worse comes to worse I have a bottom cab setup here, think you might of bought the stuff I had for sale on ebay recently?

I've got a guy who wants it, if he doesnt want it, then make me an offer on it, has the dash/steering/brake booster/master cylinder etc still there.

That is some damn serious rust youve got there lol.
