Silverado 3500 8-cyl

  • 137,000 miles
Fuel lines rusted out. Brake lines rusted out earlier. Tailgate, wheel wheels, cab, etc all rusted thro. Wheels hubs so rusted, they had to be cut out with a touch. It's so rusted out, I feel it's almost unsafe. Fuel lines so rusted out, they were dripping gas.
