This is probably way late, but I hope you wore an N95 dust mask, at the least and if that isn't enough, get an inexpensive paint respirator....keep that crap out of your lungs !!
You guys are SO lucky to have clean trucks just sitting around down there. Yours and K7elh would both be so nice to have.

Great advice. I haven't blown out the interior yet, I'll definitely wear something.

Thank you. They aren't all rust free out here, but you can at least find them on occasion. I don't take it for granted!

Consider using a shop vac with a HEPA filter bag to catch all that crap. I have a 5 gallon I use for body work and it traps filler sanding dust and dried overspray. My other vac, without the HEPA, blows that stuff right out the back and into the air.

I do have a big shop vac. Not sure what kind of filter it has, but that's a good strategy too.
