Blasting the floor





The cab floor appeared to be the most rusty with heavy pitting but after blasting it came out surprisingly solid

On the driver's side were a few tiny pin-holes that the blasting uncovered but these are so small that I am tempted to simply paint over them. Cutting and patching the floor seems like overkill and it would be difficult to decide where to stop. I could braze up the holes but that would distort the metal work and I'm not sure I see any value.

The floor seems to be thicker steel than the rest so that although heavily pitted it is still very solid.
