Re: Anyone just skip the the bodywork and rebuild everything mechanical.

This is exactly what I am doing with my truck right now. Getting it better than road worthy but leaving the cab in patina and rust. Bed will be in primer when it goes back on. At that point the brakes, suspension, and steering will have all been gone through or replaced. I’ll then decide to refresh the 283 or swap for something else.

My plan is to drive it and enjoy it until I have the $$ and am ready to live without it for the time it will take for bodywork and paint. If someone decides they need it more than me while I am enjoying it then I’ll go back to shopping.
