went to j-yard today to get my mom another door for her Neon. ( hit and run) $40 for a complete door , same color with interior panel. Any ways went to the truck section just to take a look see. man, so many 81-87's that are rust free. Must be a pain dealing with rust up there. Tons of Surburbs also. Did did find a good saddle door pull strap, a handfull of the chrome covered lugnuts and some spare rear lug studs all for $1.00 . Saw lots of straight chrome bumpers. Good to know if I ever smack mine where to go. No dashes , they are long gone.

Where were you at? I wouldn't think Plano Texas is a huge magnet for rust.

But that's what's nice about AZ... Just about the only old trucks that have any rust around here are the ones that were specifically used as work trucks and beat the snot out of.

Any decent or moderately used truck is rust free, and even most of the stuff I see rotting away on the side of the roads is still pretty rust free.
