You will never find a body shop to repair the rust on these trucks and if you did you couldn't afford it. Buy a name brand mig welder with gas and in no time you will be able to weld sheet metal. When I started redoing my 72 I couldn't get anyone to touch it. Bought a 115 volt miller, a grinder for surface prep and a decent jig saw for cutting sheet metal. I practiced for a week then replaced floors, rockers, fixed doors, tailgate, firewall repairs and replaced my windsheild frame. Total cost for parts and welder under 2 grand. When your done with the truck you still have the welder and tools. Don't be afraid to try.
