Re: Looking at a 1965 C30 - input appreciated

I went and looked up the brake split comments after PGSigns brought it up here. Thanks! That is the kind of stuff I wouldn't have known about. I hope they are later one piece wheels, I'm not a fan of only having one place to buy new tires for the old 8-17.5 rims...

So the core support is the part that comes straight off the end of the frame, right?

The part that sticks out the front of the grill of the truck in this picture, and you put bolts through laterally? If that is rotted out, is the solution to have someone cut + weld a new piece on, assuming there isn't additional frame rot? Or would that be someone you would walk away from, as an indicator of other issues?
