UPDATE: Winter Plan & Cab Break Down
Today I finally came up with a plan to continue working on the truck throughout the winter. I want to have the bed, cab, and front clip removed from the frame before it really starts snowing (2-3 weeks). That way I can store the chassis inside our 2 car garage and be able to do work on it throughout the winter. I plan on building some saw horses on the side parking strip to place the bed on, then other body parts inside the bed, all covered with a tarp. What I will do with everything else? (bench, electrical, whatever else comes, well...I will leave it up to that.
So today I wanted to do a quick rust analysis, so I removed the bench seat to investigate any floor panel issues. Knowing the truck has been in SoCal for its entire life, I am happy with the minimal rust, but know also don't want to be naive. Tell me what you think:
Floor Overview:
Tire Jack (behind passenger, next to gas tank):
Passenger Side Kick Panel:
Passenger Side Door (bottom left corner, this was caused by no window guard I believe):
Driver Side (just above kick panel, near high beams (which I dont even know if this is a standard feature or Gramps special):
