Just purchased a 65 Stepside. I've been using the forums and tech tips on this site to help me though my first restoration. Nothing major done to it yet, just getting the wiring sorted out. Thanks for all the great help on this site!

Welcome to the site. Nice truck, looks like it doesn't need any major work.

The pics of the truck are flattering. This used to be a show truck (has a plaque on the dash from 1991) but was left sitting for some time between then and now. The hood has some serious rust issues, as does the roof of the cab. The cab can be done pretty easy, but the hood will need replacing. The floors have had some patches in the past, but i will probably redo. The drivetrain is solid as a rock, and that was what really sold me on it. Right now im tracking down a grounding issue under the dash. I will take some interior and closeup shots oc the problem areas.

I uploaded a few more pics of the problem spots on my truck. They're not very good, but it was dark in my garage when i took them.
