I guess I need to update this post. I’ve got a little sidetracked building a new garage but I have been making progress. I have the bed mocked up and started body work on it. Replaced the angle strips on sides, new rear cross sill, new front panel, and all the bed bolts. I ran across a good deal from Mar-K and ordered oak wood bed with hidden bolts and hidden bolt bed strips. Went ahead and ordered their SS tailgate hinges and locks so I can get rid of the chains. I believe I’m gonna paint the wood black. I also filled in the stake pockets and capped the rear bed rails. Started fitting and welding the gas filler door in for rear tank. I’m getting close to starting the repairs on the cab.
