Looks better. You need new bumpers, and maybe you could take off some of that badly rusted stuff, and sandblast em, and coat it with some herculiner, or Rhino line it. Maybe take the bed, and cab off one day to see what the top of the frame looks like, and maybe use that to your advantage, and sand blast the frame, and then under coat, or herculine it to stop the rust. If even 80% of those underbody components(IE, axles, frame, suspension, etc) are salvageable, you should remove the rust on them, and put some sort of protection on them. If you really watch your budget, you may just make your truck's value equal or greater than the amount of money you have spent on it.
Keep up the good work. Good luck!!!
