I hate the way those trucks rusted so badly. My Dad bought a '67 C10 new that was Black over Red. Mighty 283, 3 on the tree. He let it get embarrassingly rusted before he bought a new '76. Only 9 years old and looked like crap. The '76 was worse.

Beautiful truck Postsedan! I’ve done 5 67-72 trucks and I ended up replacing rockers, cab corners, door bottoms, kick panels, fender cups, core support, inner fender on all of them. Even the “rust free” ones. I quickly learned there was no such thing. Either they’ve already been fixed, bondoed or we’re slowly rusting from the inside out. The edp panels offer better protection than factory and I coat them all on the inside with Por15. I’m finishing up a 72 Blazer Highlander and I’ve replaced almost everything except for firewall and windshield frame. People thought I was crazy when I paid $12k for it 7 years ago but, looks like I’ll get the last laugh with how crazy prices have gotten.
