Czechman, I wouldn't do that with this truck as it will be my first truck anyway and I don't think that it is too rusty. It just has a lot of surface rust . You may get to see pics when I get the truck and figure out how the scanner works to get them on the website. For some reason the truck has a hole in the fire wall that seems to be the exact shape for a repair panel. But other than that it seems in good shape. It even has the original 235 motor and it runs(hopefully).
