Then I will be sanding and staining the new bed wood. The plan is to have the entire bed completed before the engine comes back from the California builder. He had warned me in advance that I likely wouldn't see the engine until late May.

In keeping with the hotrod roots and the previous owners plan for this truck, I eliminated both the front and read bumpers and instead went with roll pans both front and rear. My painter buddy painted them gloss black to match the running boards and he did the same for under the hood.

I'll post a close up of the louvers on the hood later. The previous owner had that done back in California twenty years ago for the grand cost of $50 (I have the receipt)
