As I was looking for a donor for the chopped resin piece I got this week. I found this built up Chevy pickup I wanted to rebuild. It was originally red. This was the original plan.

So I started working...

Added some balsa wood to the bed.

I did some sanding after the flat black. I had a similar idea as I had with the 50 Merc from not too long ago. You can see the original color.

Added a frame and rails to the now dirty bed.

Almost done. Need some bumpers and then off to some day shots. Too much rust?
