Got this a few years ago in a deal.

 

Drove it for a while until i got sick of getting wet feet due to water running onto them from up under the dash.

 

So decided to investigate, and yes......................it got outa hand....pfffft......

 

As traded......

Had the wrong model deck, so bought a good rust free 4X4 one.......or maybe it's a new spa pool............

Nah, it's a deck.

Also bought some very good rust free rear doors.

Stripped and primed them for safe storage.

Cab was removed from chassis and stripped bare, turned on it's side to stare in wonder at the skill it took to do this.....pffffft.....

And the "worst" B pillar rust after all the 'Metaltech' and bog was removed.

How it sits now, although the cab mount plates have been welded back into sills.
