66 short bed

well... i recently started working on my 65 was going to rebuild the front end add power steering calipers and power brakes. well in looking at craigs list i found a 66 short bed fleet side that seems to be a better truck to put all this upgrades on, much less rust than my 65 and a short bed like i want. so i picked this up over the weekend. i will be swapping engine/trans between the 2 trucks and selling my 65. yea it looks like it has been tried to paint over and over not sure what they were thinking but kind of the style i am looking for. he gave me a bunch of parts including tongue and grove wood to finish the bed.
