Yes, huge improvement, nice work.
Just an FYI in case you didn't know, there's a product on Amazon called "Corroseal" that converts rust into a stable compound and reputedly the steel never rusts again. I used it on an old Jeepster and it worked for the couple of years I had it. It turns the metal black after a second coat but that was fine with me. It's advertised as paintable but I never did since the rust was underneath and black was fine.
Congrats, truck looks much better [emoji2938]Thanks. Yeah, I used that stuff on the frame when the bed was off. It looked nice for a couple years, but it has started to show rust through it now. I'm thinking of taking it and having it professionally undercoated. I treated it with that rust converter stuff, and then undercoated it myself. I'm afraid it's going to rust back through the undercoating.
I had same year color scheme with rusted bed. I was going through similar motions but found a bed that the shop painted and installed all for about $1k. You did an awesome job! Looks great.
