I like your enthusiasm restoring this rusted pickup. All theese old cars need to be restored because the new ones are mostly rubbish (my daily driver is a '69 Volvo). This Summer I'm going to excavate a VW bus of the fifties (probably) that is buried for 50+ years. The last time I've seen it was ca.1973 as a child when only the rear of the roof and the back window looked out of the surface. Unfortunately the authoritys seem unreachable to give permission for digging but I keep on trying ! I hope there's something left of it. Perhaps I'm even going to make make a YT Video of that adventure. Greetings from Kiel / Germany.
Please don’t put a wood bed. These busses are extremely rare and customizing it with wood will devalue the bus. Keep it simple and replace with stock metal bed. I wouldn’t even paint it once you’re done.
Well done! Definitely not a project for the faint hearted. Keep it up! ✌🏻
Great stuff guys, keep at it👍🏽 it might end up looking like mine soon 😉

You have a very beautiful daughter
Keep at it! Don't forget your tetanus shots 😉. Finishing up my '58 bus, and helping a friend on his '63 single cab. Thank You for the video!
