Its pretty darn solid. my friend has owned it for 6 years and moved it 3 times since then. so not all the years in the mud, only the last year and a half. There is only minor surface rust on the frame, like on pretty much all trucks of its vintage. my friend said there was some rot in the bed from water pooling. the rot was there before he bought the truck. It had a pop up camper on the back of it that he was in the process of dismantling and taking to the recycler. the floor and the side framing that you see in the pictures is all that's left of the camper. next weekend I'll be cutting up the rest of the camper and taking the last bits off the the recycler. then i'll know how bad it is. The cab is still water tight, so that's a plus.
