Fenders would have been black except for a fleet order.

Very nice truck. Keep it as close to original as you can, please don't chop it up. But be safe on the road!

What a great find. What does the floor of the bed look like under the plywood?

I'll take a wag and say fenders were black, at least all fenders were black through 33 as far as I know.

The floor under the plywood is pretty rough. Some rust holes. I'll be leaving the wood in for now. I don't plan on painting anything on it either. Its too easy to get started then next thing you know you are tearing it apart to fix everything and not driving it, lol.

Kevin, that's a great truck. The recomendation to stick with the mech brakes is a solid one. Properly mainained & adjusted they are as effective as hydraulic brakes and much simpler to keep up than a hydraulic system that tends to sit for long periods of time, and go bad on you from lack of use.
