How do y'all handle rust while still using your truck

[dhughins]

Alright I'm putting myself out there. I've found rust on my 69 that I didn't notice before. I now believe my truck was probably painted shortly before I bought it to hide stuff. I never know what I'm doing when buying old vehicles and just get snowed over by its coolness. So after owning it a bout a year and a half I'm starting to see bubbling in the common spots. Bottom of front fenders. I think drivers cab corner and drip rail. My delimea is it has a shiny paint job that looks cool at 20 feet and 20 mph. So do I start grinding and sanding to see how bad it is or just drive it till all the paint comes off? Have any of y'all had this?i know the floors are fine I took everything out and coated them with rust bullit last year before putting some dynamat down, but the very bottoms of kick panels are rusted it was hidden by carpet.

I've never welded or own welding equipment or a shop or shed. I do all my work in the yard.
