pretty good job JB you just need to learn to learn how to put an automatic shotgun back together with a pop rivet, an ink pen, a matchbox car, and super glue.... and when you get done, see if it works better than it did new... lol.

dents and dings are an easy fix.. so is rust with the right patch panels.. you're better off fixing your bed up, than digging up another bed which will definitely have some underlying rust, if not worse

maybe ur right. The passenger side of the bed is streched. The bed rail got bent down when we were loading wood with a skidsteer and we used a handymans jack to bend it back. Itll never be quite right
