I am in the process of putting my 1949 3600 back together and need some advice for assembling the bed.

I am not sure if I should put the metal together and mount to the frame and then install the wood floor....or should I put the entire bed together including the wood floor before mounting to the truck?

Any suggestions? Better yet, anyone have a step-by-step guide as to how to go about this?

Thanks,
Spencer

check in the bed section

http://www.stovebolt.com/bboard/cgi-bin//ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=forum;f=41

lots of advice and you can get the installation instructions from mar-k.

also tom brownell's "how to restore your chevrolet pickup" has a section about bed assembly.

My '37 bed is mounted on the cross members which are heald in place by the wood. The sheet metal is only mounted to the frame at the very back. Joe
