I really like the style of the truck and am planning on restoring it. As far as hidden rust there isn’t much. I looked at the bottom last time I checked it out and took a video for an older guy that has done some work like this. Also I checked all around the engine with a temperature gun and it was the same temp as the ground otherwise I wouldn’t have started it til it cooled down to ground temp. I only have a part time job and have a whole summer for me and some if my buddies to fix it up. As far as how much is drive it, it would be a daily driver, but I live 2 miles from work and 3 miles from school. Also I would have it in a heated garage usually 50° so going somewhere would be easy it’s just coming home. I did take one of the spark plugs out and put an endoscope type thing in it and there is no carbon buildup if that helps…
