Unless your grandpa is an elephant, it should be totally fine, that type of latch is very strong and sturdy, I used to camp out of my Silverado by using that hook to hold one end of my hammock 🤣

Hit the nail on the head there. Also interior plastic/rubber might be beginning to wear/fail if it wasn’t ever UV protected. My opinion on buying older cars is if you yourself want to learn/work on it then go for it. But if you’re going to be paying a shop to do all of that replacing then you’re better off going with a newer car
