Re: Severe rust !

Slammed67, Treat it with rust killer, paint some rust paint over it and install the black plastic flares. The flares also help keep the salt from "sand blasting" the paint off of the edges of the fender.

My Z71 came from Indianapolis. It spent it's first 5 years of life up there. It has some light flaking in places, but nothing major. Body is still rust free on the outside and underneath, but I did have to treat my door bottoms on the inside. I wish it was an SC truck, but I got such a steal on it I couldn't pass is up. I got it for 15,900 in early 2005, which at the time was about 3-4K below similar SC trucks I found in my area.
