Finally finished my "little" project. Stripped entire truck to metal (by hand ) primed and painted. Yes it is a rattle can job with the SAV paint. Replaced all the weatherstripping and window channel. Replaced both the small rear panels on either side of the tail-gate with new ones. That was the only rust I found anywhere besides a few small spots on the window frames.
Repired a few cracks and painted the engine cowl. 2 new Unimog mirrors. New rub rails made out of white-oak.
Didn't do anything to the inside, rear. Was going to bed-line, but ran out of funds.
Added a few pine-tree pin-tripes the first outing.
