Starting to assemble shortbed on its shortbed chassis. Made some steel spacers 1”x1/2” for the bed sides to sit on. No more wood bed floor!

Re: My 1960 cardinal red Chevy longbed “survivor”
The shortening of the sides looks great.
I'm curious to see how you repair the frame horns.

Re: My 1960 cardinal red Chevy longbed “survivor”
Interesting find on the steering wheel. Less dish, but not overtly obvious.

Re: My 1960 cardinal red Chevy longbed “survivor”
Everything looks perfect as is.
Put a white front bumper on it and the outside is done. Beautiful survivor!
