What you might expect to find on Craigs List

Not real of course but not too far from some of the things I've seen.

"Nice pickup. Fully restored to like new condition. Engine picture shown during rebuild process. Engine "built" in my back yard so you know it was done right. Zero miles since completion. Paint on truck may could use a little more buffing and final polishing. Will consider trades on real estate, gold bars/coins, newer diesel RV, low mileage Corvette, make an offer but remember I know what it is worth so let's not waste each others time."

Holy crap! Think that if one were to fart, cough, or sneeze within a 10' radius of that truck, it would disintegrate into a pile of reddish brown dust. Funny seeing those two upside down cast iron bath tubs on the rear chassis.

That's the way my 1971 Datsun 510 looked when I finally got rid of it. Both fenders, the floor under the driver's seat, the floor od the trunk and the rocker panels had rusted out. My wife ordered me not to take the kids in it since she figured that they would either fall through the floor or get poisoned by the fumes

I had an 88 K5 Blazer that I bought brand new and it had holes rusted through the fenders in SIX months!!
GM repainted that thing for me for free FOUR times.
