Re: Shoestring Budget 65/73 Chevy 2WD LWB

for anyone else reading this- this will save a ton of time on a bed teardown and recoat:
1. the wear strip bolts will just break off with a vice grips on the nut- you'll never save any of them anyways, and it doesn't bend the strips like you might think

2. get a basic old school sandblaster (bucket and nozzle that hooks to your air comp.(100 psi +) , you get a bag of washed "playsand" for from homedepot -
instead of grinding and sanding all the rust
