Hey I was just reading another blog about rusted out truck bodies and they were talking about a new web site that advertise new 47 to 54 truck bodies built in the USA. Has anyone heard of
www.premierstreetrod.com selling truck cabs for $6995? Are they any good?

I am not sure of the vendor, but I have inspected a complete cab with doors and found it a better way to go if your original cab has rusted corners and collision damage anywhere on the cab.

A complete new cab is the way to go but for those in my situation where the cash well has all but dried up repairing the old 1 has to suffice. Besides it is more fun doing the repairs myself.
