Beautiful truck. Does the rear PTO gear box only require two bolts when mounted onto a truck bumper?

What a perfect Dennys combo platter. Willys pickup and an old Land Cruiser
Am I mistaken or wasn’t the interior of the bed originally body color from the factory? This one looks like it may have a thin bedliner coating?
You are correct John. People coat the beds to protect the metal or cover up dents, maybe both. They also do interior floors for the same reasons.
Thx much for confirming.
Yes, I see it often but I think unfortunate. To me it detracts from an otherwise fairly original truck restoration. It’s kind of like when someone undercoats a vehicle to hide rust. I’d rather see new paint on a bed that saw real work, versus a “cover up “. No disparagement intended to the owner, just my personal preference.
