You never cease to amaze me, Factorystock! Thank you so much for that. I appreciate all of the work that alot of you do on your wood beds, but this picture is the answer to my prayers. As mine will be a daily driver, I wanted something in the bed that would hold up to hauling and I had no idea they were originally painted black. I'm more than a little excited at this information!

Great pics guys.

oem4me · 11-22-2011, 11:42 PM

Loving it, Yelmer. I don't know where you find 'em, but keep 'em coming! You too Factorystock.

1963c-10 · 11-23-2011, 10:21 AM

wow, love the old pics

theastronaut · 11-23-2011, 01:41 PM

Anybody else notice that this is a short bed "C20"? I guess the emblems were added on for the advertising.

**aerotruk63** · 11-23-2011, 01:53 PM

Thanks for sharing guys, makes it so much easier to explain when there's a picture added.

The Grille Guard accessory required an opening in the grill for the reinforcement rod from the grille guard to the frame. Just couldn't do it to my grille,nnnnnnno! Look closely in the picture.

The 3/4 ton looks good with the full size west coast mirrors.

**rideblue00** · 11-23-2011, 07:09 PM

My 66 C20 has the west coast mirrors and they can be a problem for visibility sometimes. I like the look though.

**yelmer** · 11-23-2011, 10:38 PM

more 1965 engine detail and bed

**aerotruk63** · 11-23-2011, 10:45 PM

Inline 230 in the C50, man that must have been frustrating at times. Great literature.

collins10672 · 11-24-2011, 12:12 AM

I love it. Note below where it says the red vinyl is only available with red, white, or gray exteriors. I've seen LOTS of trucks, only a few red seats.

csa daddy · 11-24-2011, 11:23 AM

thats the same seat in my 64 i want to have an orginal look to my truck. but want to change from the red an white exterior colors to turqouise an white but want to keep the inside orginal looking so what should i do with my custom seat colors.
