Where that first bed panel is I was wondering if there was supposed to be a gasket in there. My car leaks like a... well something inappropriate in there and was wondering if something was missing or if I should just chaulk it or what...

No gasket as such. I used strip caulking on the bottom side and urethane seam sealer(caulking style)on top for mine.

Good old plumber's putty works well. Just roll out a 1/8 - 1/4 inch beed and lay it around the perimeter of the opening (clean up any rust first), then reattach the panel. I sealed mine up, and then had a Line-X spray-in bed liner done. Should never leak again, but I'll never be able to open it back up without a big mess.

That Line-X looks great. I plan on doing that eventually. Right now I am just trying to seal up the water leaks and probably use a epoxy paint in the bed for now. Any suggestions on an epoxy paint?

Thanks, it gets a lot of attention at the local car shows and cruise-ins. I would try the Body Shop forum on your paint question.
