Re: Still on the hunt for a 4x4
I'm honestly just gonna come to the realization that no matter what the truck is and how "little" or "mainly surface" rust they claim there is, Its just going to turn into way more than what its claimed to be. I love the term " They all have that rust in the normal places"!! I've had sellers tell me its a super clean and rust free truck and when i started pulling up carpet corners, poking my nose into places that the average buyer wouldn't look at they all pretty much have the same problems. I mean they ARE over 40+ years old.
I want to restore one from frame up so I'm honestly realizing that i'd rather buy a complete "rusty" rig for cheap and just replace everything as it would probably need anyway with a more expensive truck, and save myself the extra money upfront and have fun with the ugly rust repairs and know it was done correct.
ahhhhh the drama!!!
