Nice. Welcome to Nicoclub.

Check the stickies at the top of the first page of this forum, we have been building up tons of info for the 720 over last couple years.

Thanks for the warm welcome. As you can see in the pics there's some rust problems on the passenger side of the bed any help finding a new bed or replacement panels would be great, thanks

Best way would be replace then section by section. The sealant they used on the bed held water right on that seam as soon as it started to crack abit causing the all too familiar rust line we all hate. IDK if anyone really makes replacements straight up for the our trucks. I need to learn more about welding before I start on my bed. Pretty sure I will need some gas or special spool gun or something to do it.

Thanks guys, Thought I would add a few more photos, some interior and some engine. Interior wise she is in excellent condition specially when considering her age, needs a bit of cleaning done but thats about it, engine wise aint been to bad either, however i do need to replace the power steering pump because its leaking a bit. Just taking it slow on working on her though, but than again aint to many hours in the day left after getting that last case of beer in the market.
