Stutter, be sure to keep us posted. Sounds like a very interesting project and something different. I'm also glad to see you are "saving one" that might otherwise went the way of the tin monster or the rust worms. And not tearing up a nice original pickup to make a rat/art pickup.
Achipmunk this thing was actually saved from being scrapped. I got it from a buddy who had an old rusted out 65 that needed to be scrapped. It was deadly. He was in the process of swapping over when I got it. I'm giving the bed back to him also. He's got a 65 C30 flatbed he wants to make fleetside. The patina on the tailgate is gorgeous and just what an artist would want. But I'd rather see it get used as it's supposed to. Check it out.
