Your truck is one of my favorites on this site! I never would have thought that it was that rusty! It's a great looking truck in all of your pics! I wonder why this generation of truck seems to rust on the frame around the spring hangers? I've seen several that have been that way since I've been on this site. The 71 GMC 4x4 that I had wasn't rusty around the spring hangers, but it sure made up for it on the body! Good luck on your rebuild! I'll be watching it for sure! ...Joe
