Would you buy this (frame rust)

[Pigpen]

Found a 5speed 3rd gen 4Runner in my price range, but 6-7 hours from me. All looked good until I got these pics.

How bad in you guy’s opinion?

WTF are you even worried about here?
That would be considered "clean" and "rust free" in this area...

Yep that's midwest gold

That’s why it’s in your price range. Plus I don’t have to work on it so I’d go for it. Doesn’t look even close to what everybody else posts for rust belt stuff.

I still have factory stickers under my ‘02 GMC so I’m no help anyway.

We have factory stickers too. They are what is holding the frame together

That wouldn’t scare me one bit.

They come from the factory that way don't they?

I live in the rust belt, I think that is brand new show room condition

Sandblast and paint.

 

[Aisin]

I’d pressure wash that and soak the undercarriage with fluid film.

Can we get pics of the rest and what kind of deal you are getting?
