Re: 1930 CCPU cab re-assembly
Well, this is how it sits right now.
After cross-measuring and making sure everything was squared and where it needed to be, I bolted the cowl and rear of the cab in place. I hung the doors to see how they lined up. I'm actually surprised at how well everything came together. I wasn't expecting that.
So I replaced the small machine screws with rivets, doing only one at a time so nothing moved. The only thing that isn't riveted yet is the fire wall. I still have some repairing to do on it and the cowl sides.
So after 20+ years of being a "pile of parts", I get to see it for the first time as a whole cab. I'm pretty excited, even though it has a long way to go yet.
Will keep you guys posted as work progresses.
