By far the best thing was hidden behind the blue paint on the side. These trucks tend to tell you the stories.
Cialoni Marine Service
Crystal lake IL

So this means the bed was put on sometime between 1967 and 1969 before the previous owner. And interestingly enough the truck was painted with the bed off so the gold paint protected the original red since it was almost new.
