I did get the truck home safely. Only 1 flat tire on the trailer, and started doing some inventory. The truck bed was totally roached out, I found a replacement bed in Phoenix. The cab was pretty bad too, in my novice opinion.

Since I wasn't the one who started this project, I probably won't know of all the parts I'm missing til reassembly time.

Anyway, I thought I would tackle the body work first, get it into primer and cover it up.

I took some classes at our community College a few years back: auto body 101, auto welding, auto paint. It was a lot of fun and great learning something I had never done before.
