Bought a set from boneyard. Could not find blue

I did paint them with paint from LMR for 86-88 Mustang.

Door Bezels are missing in the boneyard. I think I can get them online.

Hello RudyM… Sorry it took so long to respond. I got tied up with work and just have not been able to get back in the shop. At first I used a drill and wire brush and then hit it with 80 grit sand paper. I think I still have some of the rust converter left and can p oh at a picture of it tomorrow.

I’m not sure if I posted a picture of the big dent behind rear tire. This bed is nearly rust free and fairly straight. A ton of door dings but overall great shap.

I did not notice in front of tire having some damage. Should be an easy fix. I’m going to hammer and dolly wheel wells and hopefully in a month start body work and then paint it.

Got some work done to it. In about two weeks I plan on getting a lot done to this truck. Goal is to have it finished by Spring.
