Re: For Gramps (1970 C20 RestoMod)
UPDATE:
Finally got some hands to help me remove the bed. Way easier then I expected it to be. The home made bed storage worked just fine and is very sturdy, I shook the heck out of it; but I do wish I had made it about 20" not 32". I now have full access to my rear end and I will be trying to find my rear end code stamp to identify my gear ratio. Both rockers look to be in good condition, the one rust spot on the pass side seems to be only surface and has not eaten through. Although I have never done a restoration before, I have read enough on here that the rockers and kick panels are rust attractors, I am happy with this find. Here are some pics.
