> Hello -

> I am looking at a 1986 1-ton.
> Other then the typical rusting seams (pretty bad, with gaping holes)
> along the rear fender, it is in excellent condition.
> The bed, with the Toyota liner, is intact.

> Since I want it for general household hauling, the rust itself doesn't
> bother me too much.
> However, I am wondering what the consequences are down the road if
> immediate attention is not given to the rusted seams with gaping holes.
> If later on I want to turn it into a flat bed or replace the fenders,
> will this be a major project ?
> I have seen the occasional 1-ton with the flatbed/stake side
> configuration, which would work well for me.

> Thanks for any insight you can offer.
