snakebite8 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 been awhile since I got a chance to work on my 85. picked up a 83 shortbed from WV to use the bed off of it. I have to fix the rust in the panels but it starting to look like a truck again!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rembrant Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Lookin' good man. So what happened to the Flareside bed? Scrap other than the fiberglass fenders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Lewis Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Lookin' good man. So what happened to the Flareside bed? Scrap other than the fiberglass fenders? It does look good, as Cory said. Gotta feel good getting that far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snakebite8 Posted March 11, 2020 Author Share Posted March 11, 2020 Lookin' good man. So what happened to the Flareside bed? Scrap other than the fiberglass fenders? flare bed was in a really bad shape. none of the metal was worth keeping. I tried to repair some of it but it was not worth money and time.

(One less FOG on the board. 😃) I always liked the look of a Shortbed. ***autocorrect wants shortbread. 😂*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(One less FOG on the board. 😃) I always liked the look of a Shortbed. ***autocorrect wants shortbread. 😂*** yes. all the fuel and brake lines r all done. I just have to power wash and sand down the frame and paint it. i'll do that when the bed comes back off for repairs to the panels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snakebite8 Posted March 16, 2020 Author Share Posted March 16, 2020 LOVE the yellow! Are you keeping it that color? It's a looker! Yes. It’s staying yellow to save money and time. Easier to keep it yellow. And it has been growing on me too lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
