Re: my 65 fleetside build

well after a couple months and many miles with no luck finding a good bedside, i finally made up my mind to fix mine so i could get back to work. went to pull a part in niota tn and cut the lower side panel out of a long bed truck they had,75.00. brought it home and cut it down to shoet bed deminsions (3 inchs gone) cut my bad part out which was mainly the wheel well lip area. bought a flanging tool from northern tool(60 bucks) flanged my bed and welded in the new panel. and to my surprise it turned out pretty good for a amatuer. here is some pics now maybe i can get back to work, its killing me not being able to drive my truck, although i did get it out and drove it sat morning,man you can do some mean burnouts without a bed almost cost myself some more work,lol
