Rust sucks. Guess I got lucky as mine has almost zero rust. Just a small bit on the inside of the tailgate.
btw: Are those the original wheels? They look like the 01 and earlier trucks. Same basic shape as my 02's but a little different. Look at mine in post #34 and you'll see what I mean
I have a 1998 Dakota with the 5.2L. This truck was my first project in high school. I repainted it viper red and color matched everything. I shaved the antenna, emblems, and roll pan in. Its starting to look a little rough now cause its just sitting out in the sun alot now. So the clear is peeling off. I have done alot of mods but I don't want to list them all now since I am on my phone. Maybe later when I get on my laptop.

Gotcha. What a coincidence. We've got trucks that look alike and I'm a retired forklift tech.

There was a guy in Tulsa, OK that had an R/T model and it had chrome wheels similar to those.
