Life would be easy if we only had one project at a time. Progress is often a little here and a little there but it's all progress. If you can find friends to help you can sometimes make more progress and enjoy being with a them at the same tome.

Years ago I redid the wood in the bed of my '53. I bought a kit and new metal strips. I had the strips powder coated. It didn't hold up as well as I thought it would. The wood didn't either. I just treated it with wood preservative and sealer. I have a '50 GMC that I got for parts. The original wood in the bed is almost as good as new. It was painted with a paint that looks a lot like what is on the good wood in the '26 roadster. I'd like to know what that is. I thought about doing the bed with some of the new decking material.
