I asked for trouble and I got it.

brake lines...WOW, but look at the sheet metal above them...no rust at all!!...wtf were those brake lines made with ??

I know. That's what is giving me the courage to put all this money into it. Body: practically no rust, even in the wheel wells. Engine, transmission, all systems including AC: flawless. Exhaust system: looks good. Brake and fuel lines may be the worst of it. (Did transmission cooler and lines last year after they rusted out so they're new.) And while the frame is quite rusty, it's a thicker frame than the 1500s; at least my mechanic thinks that's not going to go for many years.
