Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds

I see this all the time, "Truck is solid except rust in lower areas". I guess you do have to watch for drip rail rust now, but lower body rust has always been the issue. "Body 95% rust free". Yeah 5% is what, just up into the door bottom? And how many times do you see, "Have parts to fix"? Great and thanks, now all I have to do is toss them on and look at the $300 I saved on a restoration

I live pretty close if anyone needs me to check it out.
It is a SWB K/10, but I'd want it driveable for that much money. The floor looks fine, just has an "area" that needs attention and rockers replaced. Supports too, once there is a place to put them. Needs a whole bed to be right. I'd want that for no more than $2k. I'm sure there's a spot of rust elsewhere on that truck and the frame should be closely inspected.
