Sorry if I missed the board etiquette. Thought I could let this project be quiet or share it a bit with the web. This looks like a decent site.

History:
One previous owner. Used for hauling in farming. They threw sheet metal in the bed because the original wood bed wasn't doing it. Basically wood rotted out in time with the covering.
Picked up in estate sale, it gathered dust for 7 years before becoming a project. 6 months to completion.

327 V8 is original.

Dual exhaust was added in rebuild.

after 40 years it was a dull blue color. Original color restored is referred to as Teal Green.

Hope that helps
