Congrats and welcome aboard. They are very useful trailers for sure. If you keep everything removable, they are excellent at hauling just about anything.

1969 was the year most of them showed up. The one I had was complete except bedsides but was rusted beyond compare. The bed still lives on. It's on a knuckleboom deuce owned by patracy.

I think I would do a cost/benefit analysis of the project. The rust has established a good foothold and will be all but impossible to arrest. Considering that you are working on a truck with a limited structural lifespan, I would reconsider adding a long list of mods unless you have no problem...
