See what does us in for up in canada with the rust isn't the heat or humidity, but salt for winter. Its like 2 pounds of salt for 1 pound of ice, and since we get winter for best part of the year it accumulates to alot of salt. I redid my front bumper and put that rust off paint and stuff, and it still manage to get a little rust on though only surface rust so I am happy, it can be taken off easy.

Been meaning to start getting the dents out of it and getting it ready for painting and painting it but it's been like 100*+ here lately and I work without a/c all day anyway.

I belong here too...
Snapped a pic with the phone after some troubleshooting a little bit ago.
I don't know much history on this truck, walked into a dealer one morning after another late-to-work thanks to the POS I was driving and asked the lot guy what he had on Death Row. After some conversation it turned out they'd just taken this Dak in trade the day before and I got to test drive it before the detail kid laid a hand on it, it had some issues and probably would have been on its way to the auction so we made a petty good deal for cash, that sucker was MINE inside a couple of hours, they even detailed it and put one of their decals on the tailgate
Its a '91, 3.9, 5-speed, odo now reads over 270k but it's had a fresh engine at some point, they didn't mickey-mouse the changeover the only real giveaway is all the rubber friction tape I've been peeling off of the wiring harness. It's had an Earl Scheib level repaint on the hood and roof, that's peeling at the edges and the cowl too
My Dak may not be the prettiest one around, but it does everything a small truck should and gave me just over 20MPG at the last fill-up. As standard my gas gauge has never worked the whole time I've owned it, that trip-odo comes in damn handy
