Default Take heart CMPs in far worse condition have been restored

Hi Kevin

Take heart it can be restored, being from the pictures relatively complete it is a good candidate for restoration. Though you originally asked about a cab frame my experience has been that it really is not the frame of the cab but more the sheet metal which on CMPs relatively simple with some of the curve pieces as exceptions. The cab top is the hardest part, but as the truck can be enjoyed with that removed, leave it for last. Get the critter running do the work to make it safe to drive it on the road and start enjoying it while you hunt for a replacement cab top. Of course if you can find a donor cab in good, better condition that will be a huge jump on restoration process.

Cheers Phil
