The bed looks pretty good, and straight. Mine never will be after 45 years of abuse, but I think a couple dings and dents add some character anyway. So will your bed also be viking blue, and what is the floor like?

What is mar-k? Mercury? I have a sheet of aluminum diamond plate that I'm going to try to use on my bulkhead. I saw an F100 in Vancouver done that way and I think it looked pretty good. Good luck getting yours put back together. It's going to look good when you get it done, and all that sanding will have been worth it. 
I've got to get started on mine.

Your 4wd is comming along nicely. Congrats Im hoping that one day my 63 goes together as well as yours. I look forward to the day I start all my sanding. Ill probably regret it once I start too. Im doing some quick dd body and fender on my 65 will start with filler and sanding on that one soon but nothing fancy that will come later.
