That would be great if you had some donor pieces. Any luck with your cab? Your pm box has been full so I couldn't message you

Wow,...looks just as bad as mine did,....(82 C-10)
When I got the door-fender and cowl of ,...I almost cried,....but what the heck......if you love your truck,...get at it.
I found a donor, and started cutting it in pieces...remember that with so much rot,....the a-pillar are most probably rotten a good bit up towards the roof line,...
The pillar are made of 3 pcs sandwiched together and a tough one to work with,..drill the spots and peel back a layer at the time,...
Just don't give up,...

Water and salt etc. Not nipping it in the bud will allow it to spread
