Making some progress

Well I've been making some progress on the 53. Last week I got the bed off. The other day I got the running boards off after breaking four bolts, had to grind one off, but one did actually come out easily. Today I got the gas tank out and found that the entire top of it was gone from rust. I wonder if a previous owner was smelling any gas fumes. Also, Saturday my title came in the mail sothe truck is offically mine. I also ordered a few parts, one of the items was on backorder so I'm waiting for it to show up before it gets sent to me. I also ordered parts for my 66 mustang and their on back order too, I guess that's just my luck. At least I can continue to tear down the 53. I should be off next weekend so maybe I can play some more. JT
