Spent $50 at the local body shop getting the trim holes filled on the fenders, and stake pocket patches welded in. They also filled holes in the bed rail and fixed a crack in the wheel well. I also got a lot of free advice. Money well spent I think. I'll probably take the cab over there sometime soon for some welding also. The only other rust repair to do is the bed floor. I'll put some pics up later of what was done and the bed floor rust.
