New Member with a 66 longbed fleetside

[Delo93]

New to the forum. I picked up this 66 chevy longbed fleetside in December of 2009. Paid $1800 for it... probably overpaid a little for it, but the rust isnt too bad for truck i found up here in PA, and it runs. Mileage on odometer is 15,xxx and son of the PO told me that this could be correct because the guy only drove it 1 mile back and forth to work. Anyways last fall i went to move it and lost the brakes and smacked a tree stump and smashed the passenger side of the bed in. Almost got rid of it then, but that same week i found a bed that was made into a trailer for $500 and it was rustfree in great shape, so i bought it. So i got about $2500 into this thing and havent put any work into it yet. I've been very busy with a few other projects but i hope to get a little done on the bedsides over the winter.

Well, here are some pics of truck last year sitting in front of my house before i smacked the bed up. I'll be sure to post some pics of it now, my replacement bed, and progress pics.
