Thanks, that's what I was aiming for. Everything on my truck looks original, except that I had the running boards shot with bedliner so it won't wear off like paint would.

I used a black stain that was recommended to me by a guy who said it holds up well to winter weather on decks in Fairbanks.

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