That's a pretty rust free truck. Are you going to leave the torque box like that ?

Mine has serious rust in the torque box. It needs to be rebuilt. I set mine a Crown Victoria frame w/4.6L

The torque box has been re boxed as well as everything I cut out and the torque box has a raised section so the drive shaft will clear.

I have not done much to the bed at this point other than cutting it out where I had to it will get a full floor and side panels ect further down the road.

Also the truck was pretty rusty both steps were rotted out and the driver and passenger side floor where the body mounts mount were gone. Also the back floor seat mounts had to be fixed they were rusted out.pic is kinda crappy.
