Till retirement. (Time). The truck was gonna wait and be a retirement gig but master cyl. Went out on the 68 about the time i finished a 52 pick up so.......as it usually goes, one thing led to another. We have a huge auto fair close by, in Charlotte, NC in a couple weeks, so i just figured i could save some change( $160) by buying the wood kit there.
That was ripping to width and cutting the two edge details. No holes, I do that after the wood goes in to get them in the right spot. Installed the wood yesterday, bed gets mounted on Monday.
