Actually very little rust, one spot through the drivers side floor no bigger then a dime. It came with a new fender and the paint! It was just a new used motor dropped in and a new rebuilt tranny then left for later. It runs good once all the acorns were blown out the exhaust.. Good winter beater for around here. Just needs brakes gone through and the treasure hunt through the nuts and bolts to put them back!
 
Oh the joy of taking over someone else's project . lol But with a solid body like that , It's definitely worth giving it a new life .
 
Straightened out the brakes, rebuilt the master and took it around the house, transfer case/trans/engine are fine so far, gas gauge needs to be fixed, so far so good.
 
And the puzzle is coming together . It's looking good Hops !
 
Is that an aluminum Radiator I see ? If so were did you get it , how much did it cost and how do you like it ? I'm thinking of going that route with my truck . But a lot of the ones I found are one and two row stock replacements and the bigger ones are "pricey" .
 
In the dart there is one, got it from ebay. So far so good, I think I got it from Parts geek for around 275 or so. I just put the 440 in it and am still working out the bugs (had a /6) only around 40 mi so far.
