Re: pics
yeah i got this from montana. it was a old farm truck. all the rust is from mud collecting water. both door bottoms are full of mud. i wish it was a southen truck. i was in cali a few weeks ago and nothing had rust on it.

Re: pics
Still looks very solid compared to a lot of trucks that I see. My 70 came from N. Tn. and I had to replace the rockers and the front kick panels due to rust. Check out my bed...can we say rust?
