Update on removing tape residue. I guess that tape had been on there so long (like a year in places) that it was permanent. After trying all suggestions I finally ended up using a razor blade to scrape it off, which tokk very little time. Then I went back a did some touch up painting, and now things look pretty good.

I am currently digging back in to a 1953 3800 (one ton) with a nine foot bed. I've owned it since 1979, and drove it until 1982 (or so). My wife got me involved in restoring it back in 2002, got the body removed and the frame redone, then things came up. Now I am retired and starting again. If anyone is interested I have photos on Imagur (
