To me it's not looking good on the rockers, I would start saving for those. Being in the salt belt I would really look hard at the cab corners as these rust from the inside out, by the time you see a rust bubble start there it's to late.

Getting ready for rust prevention for the first time(bought it middle of winter last year), cab corners look amazing but this is what my rockers look like. I know all about fluid film/woolwax retaping etc, but how screwed am I with these rockers? Can wire wheel and paint save it or should I start saving now for new ones? Looks like PO pulled one of the drain tubes down (but not the other?) so i’ll pull the other side as well.View attachment 469377View attachment 469378View attachment 469379View attachment 469380
Meh, I’ve seen worse.

Seriously, cut the rust off and get slip on rockers. POR-15 everywhere. You can get ahead of it at this point rather inexpensively especially if you are going to do the work yourself.
