The 65 bed trim must be similar to the 69 cuz that sounds like mine. The idea of a windshield tool (plastic) is a great idea for removal. 67elky is also right by mentioning that the new gear may leave something to be desired. Save the originals!

But have faith Stovebolter, you'll get it done. And make sure you get your son in there with you!

Enjoy the journey!

Stovebolter, in the inside of bed on the rear corners,are panels ,remove those
and you will be able to get to the chrome bed corners,get putty knife and lift
the bed rails just enough to spray WD every 6or8 inches,on both sides,
they will slide out the back,that way you don't mess up the clips and reuse them..the chrome on the top are held buy bolt so you do have to remove
the rear of the headliner,if you use a steamer if will losen the glue enough
that you can carefully peel it back,, James..

Well thank you everyone. You've save me some grief I assure you. I'll be careful and take my time.....saving the trim. I'm guessing this stuff can be sent to be re-chromed? Assume its all aluminum with a chrome finish.
