Re: 12 07 07 It's HOME
Andy,
Nice truck!!! Like the cover on the bed too. Could I get the info from you? Does it open like a trunk as well as the entire bed? If it wouldn't be too much trouble, pics would be appreciated. Thanks, Rich |

Re: 12 07 07 It's HOME
Thanks guy's for all the nice comments. This thing is going to be babied for now on!!! Yea...right.
RJGeister, The cover is a USA 21 cover in Rockhill SC. Here is the website. http://www.saveatus21.com/bindex.php I just looked and didn't see one like mine, it's 20 years old but works great. The back half is all that opens. The front half has the gas tank filler hose attached to it. Pictures will be coming soon.

You just don't know! Very excited, just hope I don't mess it up putting her back together! Got a little done not much. Cleaned the front window up and installed the front tag & park lights.

Re: 12 07 07 It's HOME
Thanks for the info Andy.
I remember when I did my first truck. It was like you didn't want to touch it for fear of screwing it up but you just had to hurry and finish it because it is begging you to drive it. Take care and enjoy it. Rich |

Re: 12 07 07 It's HOME
Pinstriper will be here later today and I will have the outside done! I will let the paint dry until Monday then drive it to work. I never thought I would say this but I'm looking forward to driving it Monday to work.
