The whitewalls are the icing on the cake!

Great grab, my friend. Lots of potential there.

Re: new to me, rust inside ----->

lol thanks guys yea the mirrors and rack are most likeley getting ditched as soon as possible lol and as for plans not really sure yet would like to fix it up real nice but might just let it be rough in some spots and make a shop truck look with it, find a slogan/name for the side a let the patina shine haha cant afford to make it real nice but im sure a motor swap, wheels tires, body work and lowering are in the future. oh and i geuss it wasnt free if you count the "dollar" i gave so there wasnt a gift tax haha

When I saw the "Dollar General" sign in the back it made me wonder if it cost you a buck. The more you put effort into it the more you will love it. Way to go!
