Question Picking up a Bed

Im picking up a bed later on and Im wondering if there is anything I should know before I do, e.g., rust hot-spots, dents that are irrepairable (if there are any). Anything that might dig deep after I bring it home, or that you guys feel is worth mentioning, for that matter.

Re: Picking up a Bed

the lower rear corners of the bed are a "b" to get worked, but there are patch panels for just about anything on a bed.

Smile Re: Picking up a Bed

I got a full short bed, and an extra left bed side that has incredible patina.

The reason why he only had this one left side, was because his brother in law dropped the bed off some forklift blades a while back...

Man would it have been nice to come home with two full beds.

I'll post pics tomorrow.
