OK, not that this will mean alot to many of you, but... My gold '65 shortbox stepside is going under the knife. I'm the worlds WORST body man and I can't paint. BESIDES that, I've got NO eye for bodywork that is considered straight and bodywork that ducks will try to land on. SO, a friend of mine (who IS a master of these tasks and specifically restores / hotrods stovebolts) is going to cut out all my rust, replace with new and paint it over the next coupla months. I'm going with an original blue (no flake) with an off white top. I will help him but in all reality will just try to stay out of his way and worry more about the mechanical side of the truck. Interior will be put back to the original silver tone. Should be NICE when we get done. Wish me LUCK! randy
