My 73 Stepside Project

Picked up this 73 stepside it's going to be a long term project due to time constraints and the amount of work that it needs.


It was the previous owners daily driver until it had a small engine fire last month, and as you can see from the pictures it needs quite a bit of rust repair.

The rust repair will take the most time the engine fire looks worst than it actually is.

This will be a fun one to watch. Literally anything you do will be a noticeable improvement. That's cool. How is the interior?
