Re: Finally out of paint jail!

I don't know what in the world possesed you to paint the wood bed black... but what ever it was I'm thankful for it cause that bed is eye candy. You have my second favorite black truck on the board now (second behind mine of course LOL) Looks one notch above fantastic.

Re: Finally out of paint jail!

Did you paint and seal or stain and seal? What paint/sealer?

I started my bed with a Cabot Wood Stain (Ebony) and followed with the Cabot Semi- Gloss Spar Vanish from Lowes....only problem is I stained/sealed then remembered, HEY DUMMY YOU GOTTA DRILL HOLES! LOL I guess I got a little excited, so I'll do it again here soon.

Your looks GREAT!!

No need to drill holes in the wood, bolt in the crossembers from under the bed. Saves the wood from splitting too.

Damn.... I can't wait. I have a 67 short bed in the garage. Frame was powder coated dropped spindles and custom crossmember from early classics... Now she sits while I finish other projects! PM me if you find a OEM 67-68 radiator support in good shape!

You have to drill the holes for the outter most pieces...that connect to the bed sides. Or no?



Either way, the bed (AND TRUCK) look great!

Re: Finally out of paint jail!

Yes you have to drill the small holes in the angle piece but not the large holes for the 8 bolts that hold the bed down.
