How much?

Need to have some rust replaced on my dentside. Cab floor, above the windshield on the front corners and in the door jams. Also need to have the bed floor, bulkhead, and side replaced. What can I expect to pay for these types of repairs?

post pics of the current state so we can see if the metal is worth repairing or parts in better condition might be the better choice ..

Been looking for another bed. The cab is in pretty fair shape, but I would like to find a better one. The truck is the one in my profile pic, I can take more pics, but posting them takes a while, we do not have internet out where I live so I post here with my phone.

I have seen trucks on craigs list in the $1k to $1,500k that are not running for one reason or another with plenty of great sheet metal where you might be better off going that route if it matches your current vehicle and have a way to haul it .. More pics would be easier to help advise on that .. I live in the rust belt so I've had to drive many miles to get stuff that's worth working on

Buy yourself a nice lil welder like the Miller 140 and go for it... about $700.

It's not rocket science.
