Moving the Bajaab into the garage this weekend (if I have time 9_ 9) so went to release it from its blue tarp cocoon and let it air out a little. With the massive rain we’ve had it did still get a little wet inside, but it’s been warm and sunny today and should be warm and sunny tomorrow so hopefully will dry out quickly.
Poking around the floor and found the rust is not so bad in the firewall, it’s mostly in the floor ahead of the seats, in the lower areas of the corrugations (that is where water collected, it’s rusted from the inside out) . I’ll have to scrape the sound deadening and under coating off to see how bad it is, but poking with a screwdriver most of the floor seems solid. Who knows what nightmare is under there though.
Guess I got to learn how to weld now.

I judge boat size entirely by how tired I am by walking around it on a trailer. This Tundra is about a .8 a 1 being about the size of the boat you got there.

I hope they’re not towing that boat with a Tundra, or any other 1/2 ton for that matter.

This is the exhausting thing I have to walk around.

What is that on the boat scale? 1.2?

I don’t think anybody has towed that boat in about a decade.

That looks about right from the picture . The real question would be if they winterized and pickled it the last it was hauled out. I want to give it a 50/50 chance the block froze and cracked at some point, the cylinder walls have rust pitted to the point of no meaningful compression and the fuel tank has 50 gallons of varnish in it.

just shows you how bloated new Toyota Tundras et al are
