Today I brought the truck to the shop that is doing the body work on the bed. He wanted to have it so he can measure and get the strips welded on the bed sides in the right location.

I see now what John means by his comments. The angle strips I got from VPW, the flat ones from Mar-K. The bead is different, but to the untrained eye, not much difference. We mocked everything up with the strips so he can put the sides on and get them lined up to tack on. He should have the sides done some time tomorrow.

Paint is another issue. Paint guy said he wont be able to paint it til mid June. Body guy said hes gonna talk to him, they are in the same building, and see if he can get it done sooner. Its only two bed sides, the front wall and two rear fenders. Hopefully I can get it all back and assembled minus the wood by mid this month.

Im paying for a mistake of taking this whole month off on vacation. Fires are rampant here, and I cant do anything cuz Im on vacation. So Id really like to work on it to keep my mind off all the fire Im missing.
