685 case with rusty cab

I’m looking for a little information. I have a 685 Case, however the cab has rust issues. My local dealer tells me none of the doors, fenders, etc are available any longer. I was hoping to find a blueprint on line for the floor pan. With a few dimensions I could get the local wielding shop to fabricate up a replacement before I tear the whole cab apart.

Thanks

From my experience the chance of finding dimensioned drawings on line i woild say is nil??

Which cab is it that is fitted ?? is it the low profile "L"cab or the flat deck XL cab??

Where abouts are you located??

I'm in Nova Scotia.

I think my cab is the flat deck. I figure it can't hurt to ask, you never know what is on the web these days

Can you just cut out the old floor pan and use it as the template for the new one? If not, you could use a large sheet of cardboard and cut to fit and use that as the template.
