Did a bunch of rust repair on the bed sils, then a coat of epoxy followed by some black Tremclad.



Welded up a few holes and did some body work on the tailgate. It got a coat of epoxy as well.



I cut the bottom 4 inches off the front bed panel which was totally rotten. Had a piece of 16 gauge bent up to replace it. I used a long straight edge to cut the bottom off so I ended up with a perfect fit up with no gap. Clamped both pieces down on top of some heavy aluminum angle. I welded them up using pulsed tig with no filler. big plus to this method was almost zero grinding after!
