The frame, engine, and transmission are almost ready to start coming together with the body. The build is finally starting to take shape, and all the hard work is beginning to pay off. 🔥

More of 56 ford bed.

When I was building the long bed and couldn’t source the parts, I called my friend Nathan at Custom Fabrication and Welding. He supplied the 16-gauge sheet metal and made all the bends to match the factory bed profile. From there, I took the top rails and welded them to the bed sides. Then we fabricated new bed braces and a new front wall. After that, I sourced two sets of short-bed running boards and modified them to replace the original long-bed set.

Got the summit white and ember red paint along with 4 coats of Tamco clear laid down. Then sprayed lizard skin and jet black to the trunk,bottom and firewall of the 63 impala. Now time to get to all the other parts.
