Theres a couple of trucks that I've fallen in love with the stock 80s two tone. I really like the light blue dk blue combo and the light blue white combo. Especially with a little wear on it

Also a clue to where I live if you don’t look at my location on the left where yours says Miami….
I strongly considered painting the secondary color white, but kept original colors. Could vinyl wrap it white pretty easy though!

Yes...but I seem to only like 2 tone when it's faded and rough. Go figure.

I know. The thought had crossed my mind. Most of what I've seen they cut the frame and put a short bed on it. Can you cut down bed too?

I watch Puddin's Fab Shop on Youtube when I can. and he had a short series of videos on doing exactly that - had a damaged longbed and he cut/welded/reinforced the frame and then cut down the longbed sides to match what the measurements of a factory shortbed to make everything look right. Did the welds at the front bed coreners if I recall, that way they wouldn't show on a smooth flat panel.

Just found the video. Going to watch it tonight. It would be really nice to do that and be able to keep the paint!

Great photo and backdrop. Climbed Liberty Ridge in ‘05, I miss my days on Rainier. The truck takes the cake tho.

@YakkoWarner didn't realize you had to take off of both the front and back of the bed.
