Thanks
Dusty's 4th picture shows it clearest. Everything was painted Ocean Green (the same color as the bedside beneath the fender location). You can see that the wood was painted before the offset washers were installed where the hold-down bolts are. I think I can see some green on the carriage bolts for the bed strips also, so the floor and cross-sills would have been installed, then the whole thing painted body color.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
