Yes. It was heavily rusted around headlights, A pillars, rockers and front quarter panels. The underside of the rest of the truck had 1 to 2 inches of Nebraska clay for under coating. The frame, floor etc. were like new. It took two years to get it to this point. The seat was refoamed, my uncle was 6' 4" and 250. I didn't like sitting in the dent where he sat all those years. The seat cover was made locally out of snow mobile grade vinyl to match fairly closely the well worn original cover. My labs ride every where I go.
