Originally, the bed was black. My grandfather did a respray of the whole truck to cover his business logo and (five digit) phone number when he retired in 1965. I preferred the single color so I had it repainted that way while it was apart.

My 52 B3B. My grandfather bought it on October 21, 1952 for $1,634.81 to use at his auto repair business. He told me when I was about 10 that it would be mine one day and I inherited it in 1975 with just under 48,000 miles on it. Work, kids, life, I just got around to the restoration thanks to the pandemic lock down. My goal was to put it back just like it was the day he got it. That's him at his shop in the early 60s.
