53 ford PU Gluebomb Rebuild

[DAVE WOOD "Nitroholic"]

Picked up this 53 glue bomb at a club meeting for $3.00 I'm going to rebuild it for a Light Commercial contest, it was painted Gold (no primer) makes tough to strip but I did it.

only have till this Friday to finish this thing, probably not a good idea to add a real wood bed.

Thanks Rick They are Photo etch bed rails from Replicas & Miniatures. I've used them before on my 50 ford PU they are realy nice and easy to use.

I was wondering about the badrails comments and I am thinking that they look more like Popsicle sticks than photoetched. Then it dawned on me-you are talking about the bed "strips." They do look very nice though!
