Sheet metal in the bed is over the original wood. I think I found a really nice 1963.
If this truck is "super straight" like you describe, it needs to get some kind of award for being the most worn looking, yet undamaged truck ever. Yikes, that "patina" is downright painful!

Absolutely right. The rust has taken off 80% of the paint. But I'll pay you $1 for every dent you find. This truck has lived an easy life. It needs rust repair in the usual places where these east coast trucks usually suffer from it. It won't compare to a west coast survivor but it will look good with some normal repairs. I'll share more pics once I have it cleaned up.

oem4me,
Runs and drives. Does it still look "painful"?
