Re: Big Red

Thanks Gary, it's not bad. Has rust in all the usual places.

Hi,
what are typical rustplaces/spots on our trucks ?
I will have to treat the preventive as we have lots of water and snow here.
Thanx

Mostly at and around the wheel wells / quarterpanels, bottoms of the doors / bed, and undercarriage. But I've seen them rust badly pretty much everywhere.

Re: Big Red

Yep. Dad's truck has rusted rear cab corners, rusted rear wheel arches, and a rusted floor pan due to a leaking windshield seal. Rusty had rusted cab corners and rear wheel arches, as does Big Blue.

uhhh, sounds bad.
Shame I thought some of the are galvanized.
Means I'll have spray tons of underbody protection onto it.
