Need help with Rust

Hello everyone,

I am new to the forum and the world of Chevy. I have never worked on cars or trucks, but plan on starting with this 1972 C20 Cheyenne Super I just purchased. I will have many questions as time goes on but in the mean time I was hoping to get some help with my rust problem. I live i Los Angeles and need someone to work on the rust above my windshield. Any one have any suggestions. Check out the photots.

Re: Need help with Rust

Welcome from Western Kentucky. The only thing to do with that rust is have it cut out and new metal welded in. Good luck with your project.

That's the way my first cab looked. It can be fixed with a little patients but it's not a forever repair.
