All you southern sunbelt guys need not apply. You will not even comprehend the pictures I'm about to post.
Here's a general view of the truck. Just has a 1" spacer up front to counter the weight of the winch.
A look at the tailgate ...
Left bedside ...
Inner rear fender
Right bedside ... uh-oh.
Inner fender ... ah crap!
Rust on the cab ...
Yes, that's gone through.
All 4 windshield corners ...
Imagine this is your truck. A 94, 130k, swapped a manual trans this spring, reliable and obviously paid for.
What would you do? Fix the rust (keep in mind I can't do bodywork ... I'd swap hood/bed and have the cab fixed by a shop) or ditch the truck (keeping in mind I don't have 15k to put in a replacement truck).
