Re: 86 Shortbed on its way to paint :-)

Yep, actually I did the cheap DIY roll in liner. I will still use this truck so no need to have a pristine bed. Looks and functionality. I had a 69 short step that was done nice and I was afraid to really use it so I decided on this one that the bed inside would be usable.

I know after time the chains will damage the paint but this isn't going to be a garage queen. I plan on using it, driving it on a daily basis so the clear tubing covers will slow the process down some.

I'm going to take it to a local interior and trim shop to have a tonneau cover made. There were already holes in the bed for snaps and I didn't have them closed up. They will be reused when new snaps are installed.
