I've had my '93 for about a year now. I posted pictures last summer in this thread but they're no longer hosted on imageshack. It didn't look very bad at the time, but there was much more rust than the few blisters once I started picking away at it
My budget was pretty tight but I'm pleased with the results so far. In the past month I've replaced the fenders, put a patch in the drivers wheel well and added a new tailgate. A few rust repairs, plenty of cleaning and a roll on Tremclad (Rustoleum) paint job and it's about 90% done.
I've been finishing up on buffing the paint this past week to get it ready for wax. Of course now that it looks better it's developed an intermittent no start condition in the last week I'm leaning towards it being the ECT sensor, but need more time to troubleshoot it.
The first two pictures are from a month ago and the second two are yesterday.

Sweet pictures of a sweet truck. What size are your BFG's? I've got 31x10.50s on mine. I really like these tires. They ride nice, are just agreesive enough that they get awesome traction anywhere, but are very well road mannered and quiet.
