That is what I like to refer to as patina from the ground up instead of the top down! :lol:

I opened the door on one in a pasture and it fell off. Couldn't really tell anything else since the johnson grass was taller than the truck and my imagination led me to believe I heard a rattler so I boogied. Johnson grass burns on my face too.

there was a guy on the other side of town, had a 68 C/10 LWB. First time I met him, I saw him drilling and bolting a speed limit sign in as a floor for his truck. Hile MANY mid-westerners have done this for the part where our feet go, he was doing it for a place to bolt the rear feet of his seat.
I went by his place again a couple years later, the bed had rusted away from the bed floor and fell down, basicly, off the truck.
I know where there's a 71/72 here in town where the tail gate rusted off the bed.

I am so glad rust doesn't grow here, it must suck to have to deal with it! Do you guys use some kind of rust killer? A rusticide? Does rust bite? How long does rust live? Does it stink when it dies? What happens if you touch it? Looks yucky! Other than metal, what does it eat? Will it eat people? Is it slimy? I hope it never migrates to Northern California like killer bees migrating north! That would be scary! People with a rust problem shouldn't drive their infected cars up here, I think they should be turned around at the border if their car or truck has a rust infestation!

yeah, this picture dosn't make sense! I don't think it's possible to rust like that. Maybe it's a photoshop?

Just a few patch panels and a little TLC, that truck could be back on the road in no time!!!!
This one was NOT built at a GM plant. This truck had to have been a ford disguised as a Chevy
:haha:

I have seen pics of that white truck the OP posted on this board before. I thought it belonged to a board member.

Good Point. I think you are right and it was fixed up if my memory serves me correctly.
