Good look with that man and yeah I've heard surface rust is pretty easy to handle, but then again I don't know how to tackle surface rust wouldn't mind knowing though.

the surface rust is like removing paint but it leaves pits sometimes. the surface rust also makes it alot more softer and thinner if reall bad, but other than that i recomend rust-oleums rust reformer you can buy at walmart i would grab 4 of these, and it converts rust to a protected paintable surface. it turns rust black. but dont be fooled, you still should use primer after you sand a surface rusted area with pits, then apply the rust reformer. then you could apply your primer, then your paint.

I believe the magnums came with SRT-8 version, equiped with a lil better suspension, if you do a trade in, youl have one kick ass Magnum
