I think it was taken care of pretty well. I had to replace a floor pan and a cab corner, and one of the fenders is a bit rusty, but overall it’s pretty solid. It has a dealership tag on the tailgate from a local dealership, so I’m pretty sure it’s been around here its whole life.That doesn't look like a rust belt truck to me.

Wow, I haven't seen your name on here in a while, though I probably just missed you since I don't "hang out" in the other areas as much as I used to.Looks like you know your way around metal. Im liking what I see and wish we were closer, have you considered add in some metal stiffening across the "C" frame in stress areas, basically making it "square tube/box beam" , I did that on a rotten frame repair on my 1990 GMC C1500s frame.
Progress has been slow lately. I finally got the rear brakes finished up last night.

One f the axle tubes was scored where the seal rode on it.

So I installed a Spedi-sleeve and it was good as new.

I had an unusual delay on Sunday. As I was looking at the brakes before tearing them apart I noticed a part missing - the parking brake strut rod. It was missing on both sides. I thought you couldn’t buy them aftermarket, but I found that Dorman makes them. I managed to find one locally and get one of the brakes together, but I had to order the second one and finally got that together Monday night.

After that I finished all of the rear brake lines. I just used some coated steel tubing I had in stock already instead of buying more of the nickel copper tube. Eventually this truck will get fully torn apart and I’ll do all new nickel copper lines at that time.
I got the old exhaust cut off, put the rear wheels on and turned the truck around. Time to tackle the front end of the truck.
