Thanks guys.
So far work done includes new AC (disclosed by the seller as not working) . Clutch linkage replaced with rod end bearing. ARE canopy (rolling dog house).
Looking into chipping and air filter. Probably front bumper too.

I'm not sure about diesel's, this vintage, but for gasser's, no support for a chip, have to go tweecer, quarter horse, or stinger-performance, and program them yourself, not for the faint of heart, like me!

Did some rust repair.


Cut out the rust.

Clean up the inside and soak in POR 15

Make a patch panel , paint the back side with weld through zinc primer.

Skim coat, mostly sanded off.

Paint and buff.
