Re: 1968 C10 Stepside Restoration Project
Today I took the opportunity with some slightly cooler temps (84 degrees) and a short lunch break and got the last few remaining bolts out so I could remove the bed. The two bolts holding the tailgate had to be cut, but the side steps and fender supports came loose...either they actually unthreaded or twisted off.
The besides and fenders are going to be replaced as are all the bed support pieces, that it why the bed is situated like it is. I will definitely keep the tailgate and will need to assess that front end piece of the bed. Of course I will replace all of the hardware with stainless steel.
