Took us almost three days to do mine. We had 0 airtools and didn't use a lift. It all got done though.

Just the same hole on the right side. Cutting and welding to fix it is no issue, but ill have to drop the gas tank? Drivers side is ok. I'm def taking the hatch carpet out and bedlining it. But I don't know if I want all my carpet out.

I started down this road....as a matter of camaraderie, I will share...

Begin here:

http://www.myunibody.com/forum/viewt...t=813&start=70

This is what I went through....but mine was much worse.

I eventually sold and bought a rust free 98....but that is because I wanted to just start over and get a better shell for what I want to do with it. I had derusted all but the body.
