It was likely beachside here in Daytona and that is a death wish for steel. Even the gas pumps rust down there. regards

Re: Nothin Left !!!!!!!!!!
I grew up in Newfoundland, I picked up a suburban 61-62 once for a few interior parts. It was so rusty that the entire roof skin lifted off.
This one reminded me of that old girl, even a very similar colour. |

Re: Nothin Left !!!!!!!!!!
Here in New England, sometimes that's as good as we can find to start with, LOL!
why do you think I haven't posted any pics of my suburban, that came from MAINE!? You think some of that might buff out? |

Re: Nothin Left !!!!!!!!!!
I never knew that rubber would rust the steel belts must have rusted from the inside out. I am surprised no one commented on the fact that the cab had a 20 year head start on the 80's stepside bed... yikes

Re: Nothin Left !!!!!!!!!!
I suspect the original owner opted not to get the dealer installed rust-proofing installed.
