Question New here with my 2 Dodge trucks and a rustproofing question.

Hi everybody!!!
I just bought a 1996 Dodge Ram SLT regular cab 4X4 with a 5.9L/360ci engine from the original owner. It has 58,000 miles/93,000kms original and was always garage kept. There is zero body rust and minimal undercarriage rust on it. The only rustproofing it's ever seen is whatever application was used in the factory back then, which I bet was not that great.
What I'd like is some input from the forum on what rustproofing process has been the best, from all your experiences, for a vehicle this age.
I just want to keep this truck looking as beautiful as it does right now!!
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Check out the 2nd gen ram section, there were a few threads in there on rust-proofing, etc.

Welcome to DF! Nice truck.
