Re-model but found rust
Hi all. Been an SMB owner since '09. Found a good deal on a '92 Ford EB 5.8 v8 with 120K for $5k. Have put some small upgrades on it including a 2" lift, new wheels, front bumper, etc.
It came fully built out from SMB.
Problem is that the MFD was warped from being wet/old, the carpet was terrible. Needless to say i have finally pulled the trigger and wanted to do some panel/cabinet/carpet upgrade.
Couple questions, does the regular EB need the panel cut out for the goucho bed backrest or was that for storing the extra pad?
Also, when I pulled up the plywood floor to clean everything, I noticed some rust at an area that looks to be a frame support. Its not bad now or deep, what should I do to correct this.
We only put about 5K miles on the van each year and would like to get it dialed in to keep for 5 or so years for local trips and the occasional trip to Big Sur from SD.
