How To Remove The Bed From A 1994 Chevrolet C1500 W/T

[yorgle11]

After losing a car to a rotted frame, I've become really paranoid about rust. If I had a truck taken that far apart with the frame so accessible, I'd probably end up sanding and repainting the whole thing. I just couldn't bear to leave that alone.

I'm planning to try that "Por15" stuff someday, supposedly it's a miracle worker.

is there a snake at the bottom right hand side of the topper at :31 seconds?

[uxwbill]

@norm79vette No, that's the foam seal from between the topper and bed.

LUV IT LUV IT You make groovy movies, fun stuff, creative. YOU GO UXWBILL!!

wow looks like you have some serious rust probems on your truck. Do you park it on pavement or grass.

[uxwbill]

@MARNICTOB Pavement or a stone drive almost all of the time. When this video was made, it had been sitting at the farm for a few months.

It's strange. Most of these trucks have visible body rust. Until about a year ago, this one had a rust-free outer body.

@MARNICTOB thats not serious rust dude its normal for a truck thats almost 20 years old they didnnt coat those frames that well back then

lol me and my step dad removed the bed on my truck by hand just me and him but the thing was pretty heavy

[uxwbill]

You can always do that, but it's extremely heavy.

[isaacjamesshaw]

@bubbah12345 thats how most people do it we all dont have lifts ya know you guys had 4 people it would have easy arnt yall suppose to be farm boys

[bubbah12345]

@isaacjamesshaw lol i didnt get what you said there, but yea, we didnt have a lift or we would have used it (WAY BETTER idea)

[OntarioMan69]

hey bill great video man :D

[uxwbill]

thanks

[uscar17]

Wow the frame is rusty too.... Nice pick up anyways, and very solid engine, I got the same in my 92 Astro

[uxwbill]

I was suprised to see just how rusty the frame really was. My '84 Sierra has a much cleaner frame and I don't know why. I find it equally odd that so many of these trucks also have outer body rot (especially above the wheel wells) and this one still does not. It been kept outside for the entirety of its life.

[bobfe360]

I think they keykeepers truck looks better without a topper. when we fixed the fuel lines on my S10, 3 of us just picked up the box.
