got the bed reinstalled today...

sweet truck. I'd prolly prefer a flatbed on it, but to each their own. In any case, its a hell of a good lookin' truck! gj!

thought of doing a dope flatbed out of 6x6 wood real bulky. but i kinda like the lines of the bed and i like the spare tire mounted on the side. although now it wont do me any good!! thanks for all the comments!!

Is that an 8' box on that? If so did you relocate the fenders? Looks to be a lot of room between the rear fenders and cab compared to mine. What you have there is the ultimate evolution of old Chevy trucks, great job.

so i tried to find a piece of 1/4 steel but i need 50 x 89 so gotta order it. did a quick 3/4 ply floor going to seal the top and undercoat the bottom. should last till i run down the sheet steel and get spunky enough to remove the bed again.

thanks! got a little more done, tailgate, rear lights, re plumbed the gas tank. it fills thru the center of the spare tire. got the spare mounted, even though it wont do me any good! gonna get a matching rim and a little bigger tire for looks though. re adjusting the valves changing oil, plugs, and going 2 steps richer on the secondary jets.also mounted this cool hood ornament
