I had a total of 3 to 4 days of work in this at my slow do it out in the weather pace. However when it was all said and done, I had a decent bed for the cost of a tube of JB weld, can of spray rust convertor, rustolium paint, some welding wire, and the bed. For me that was under $200. Oh yeah, about 3 or 4 bandaids
. What can I say, I am not all that coordinated.
Hope this helps some of you with an alternative to buying new bed sides.
