Bed problems

At some time in the last 50 years the bed on this 1967 got swapped for a 70-72 bed. Crash, who knows? But I don't like the rear reflectors that were mandated by the government.

Mod Shop Metal sells a $25 part that you can weld in to make the bed look like a 67 again!

Now, I am not a welder. I have a welder. So this is amateurish, but it's stuck to the truck.A little grinding and body filler, and no one will know... well you will. But hey, you're not telling anyone right?

New paint... getting ready.

Since the paint was going to be changed, I went to the paint shop and looked through their color book. I found one that was really close to what I wanted. I got some things that I needed to paint. Now to finish up the prep, fix the garage into a paint booth, and send the family out of town for a week or two while I do it!

Ironically the color is an exact match for the handrails at Disneyland's Haunted Mansion. Whod'a thunk it.?

New Seat... again

Ok, so with the color change I need a new seat.
I am selling the old, new, recovered seat now. Here is what I want to do.

The seat tracks should go in nicely. The problem I have heard is that the back could be a bit low and need to be shimmed up.
