I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman, "Where's the self-help section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

Re: My rusty 58 stepside build
I am doing my best to work on " Petey " for at least 2 hours every night. I have the passengers floor pan almost ready to set it place and the tranny cover, but i have a badly rusted out area that i cannot figure out exactly what it was or is supposed to be. A pillar? I will post a pic as soon as i can take a good one..
