What to do with a rusted out K5 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**68SWB4x4** · 08-28-2014, 06:39 PM

I have a 74 GMC Jimmy 4x4 it runs/drives good and is in good overall shape except it is just.... very very rusted (yes this can happen in California)

The firewall is completly rusted through, cowl, passenger side door jamb, windsheidl frame, etc... I enjoy driving it and like the truck but I don't want to invest too much $/time into it when I have a 68 Suburban 4x4 That I want to full redo.

tips to stop it from spreading more? Practice body work?

Just drive it and fix the little things and enjoy it till a door falls off?
