Re: how about some pics of 60-66 long beds
NICE!
I've got a '62 Long/Step 4x4 carcass that I'm going to bring back from the dead. I like that wrap-around step bumper on yours--I've got a lead on one for mine. Also have two leads on winches for mine. I really like the proportions of the long-step 4x4 trucks, as well as the usefulness of them. -Brad

Re: how about some pics of 60-66 long beds
just an update to what she looks like now. figured out shes a longbed step side that i cant find bedsides for, took the wine barrel off the back and refinished the wood. put in a new hood, new fender, and new bumper to get rid of all the bondo it had, and installed a windshiled sleepysal was kind enough to give me.
sorry i never sent you a pic sal, here it is!

Re: how about some pics of 60-66 long beds
I've probably posted mine in this thread in the past but here it is again. Mine is a 66 C20, and unlike most everyone I didn't want a lowered truck. So mine has all new 3/4 ton springs, 31" BFG's and a front yard paint job(hvlp). This was my work truck up until a yr ago, tool boxes, compressor, guns etc. Nothin special but it always got attention on job sites. Before and after shots.

Re: how about some pics of 60-66 long beds
I took the original blue paint code to the local supplier and had a gallon of single stage mixed up. I sprayed my saw horses and it was a little too light so I got extra blue tint and added until my wife and daughter made me stop and that's the color. I think I added about 4oz of the blue tint. The white is Bombay ivory. This was only the second paint job I've ever done, and I painted it over the course of a couple weekends. I learned that outside temperature has a HUGE effect on paint. My paint flowed the best when it was about 60° outside. I painted the wheels, tool box and tailgate when it was 57° and they probably came out the best, no wetsanding needed . That's just my beginner experience. I used a medium harder and reducer, a finish line 4 gun and my 60gal compressor. Then wet sanded the snot out of it and went through the buffing compounds. It cost me about $425 in pant then another $100 in sandpaper and buffing compound. I had a quote from Earl schieb(cheap painter) for $2000, which was more than I wanted to spend on a cheapo paint job, so I just did it. I learned a lot and will paint the 58 myself as well, hopefully it will be even better.
