Dunce's 59 Fleetside build

Bought a pair of trucks out of Florida. One is a 1958 Fleetside and the other a 1959 Big Window stepside (with incorrect later model stepside bed). Building the Big window with a fleetside bed.
-73 Camaro subframe
-Fatbar link
-motor undecided at this point.
-low but not slammed.. more of a muscletruck look
-fauxtina with a dark blue being the base color
-fixing all the rust/dusts but don't want a high dollar paint job, may even paint it myself.. have done two other cars and I just want something cool I'm not afraid to beat on.

Just getting started. I've been at it about 5-6 weeks now and I'll be posting more pix soon to catch this up as a build thread. But here's what day one looked like. Cab is decent but bed was really rough. That rust on the spears was not fun to fix and one of the bedsides was basically swiss cheese after stripping the paint off.
