I have returned to my past love. Picked up a 1986 C20

I sold my list square truck a few years ago. And have been kicking myself everyday since. I have been watching this 1986 C20 Long bed on Craigslist for about a month. I contacted the seller once for details, but wasn't ready to buy at that moment. Let a few more weeks go by, called again. This time went and took a look and had a few bucks in my pocket. Nothing rides like these trucks, I had to have it.
I noticed right off it was running like it had a couple of vacuum lines off or open. The Q-Jet was just that out of adjustment. It only took about 15 minutes under the hood to correct the minor issue's. Several rotted vacuum hoses, and someone had added a vacuum gauge and the source hose was disconnected.
It had one of those Tornado canister kits installed in the air filter housing
hose. It had the hose blocked tight, there was no air getting past that thing. I don't know if it was designed to spin or what. Its gone now.
There are three area's of rust, the left door bottom. I'll most likely replace the door, there easy to come by around here. And the back of the cab, one place up high at a seam above the rear glass. And a place below the glass which I see two holes, so two small patch panels miged in there.

More later Ken I'll have take new pic's tomorrow
