Thanks for the support Clive. There is insulation in the roof and rear of the cab, a layered plastic material, my intention is to replace this as the resto continues with a more modern version. My initial call is that this material held the moisture and maybe, just maybe, the rusting started from the inside out hence the roofs seem to be the first to go as it inhibited a good air flow to help dry out the cab. (I will take a few pics and post them later)

Have refurbished the rear cross member that the winch marries up with, it had been ripped by the winch cable; a common problem I think. It has been unbolted along with the tail end of the chassis, removed, repaired, rust treated and refitted. Small steps but every step is one step closer.

Cheers,

Dave.
