Re: I love Patina

A word of advice, get some PBblaster to use on the rusted bolts., make sure you have a sawzall. You can go to home depot and get new carriage bolts for less then $10.00 and that is with the washers and lock nuts. If you remove the bed hook it up to a cherry picker and it will come off much easier good luck with the swap and take lots of pics.
