looks nice and solid and straight. But what are those things on the bed above the trim?

 

Thanks, It really is in great shape. I bought it from the second owner who purchsaed ut in June of 1971.


Those are spring loaded hooks for tie downs. They are coming off.

 

Thank you Bill

 

looks awesome and very straight. Surprised that large of a truck would fit on a U Haul trailer (barely it seems!)

 

hoss I'm betting he handled the truth recklessly or the U-Haul renter was an idiot. U-Haul would sheet if they saw that, and somebody would be sent back to class or have their dealer papers pulled.
