Never Doing Another Project !!

Got to have cup holders

 

You need to finish this up so you can take it on safari to Tanganyika!!!!!

 

The dirty work starts again. Starting work on the bed

 

I little bit of welding, a lot of bit of blasting then fabricating the sides and front panel

 

3 bags of sand later

 

How do you have time to do all this?

 

I dont rest much

 

Bed frame is sandblasted and 2 coats of por-15 . I know I'm going to regret it when welding the sides on.... although I am considering just bolting them on since wood floor will hide bolts...still deciding

 

Some really nice work you're doing. Liking this thread.

 

I need to get up to the steel place and get a couple sheets of 16 guage so I can make the sides and front panel but in the meantime I got 2x12 pressure treated wood for the bed floor. Ran them thru the planer down to 1". Just ship lapped them no metal strips. I will fasten with galvanized carriage bolts

 

My father's was actually a flatbed and it would be more practical but I never warmed up to the look

 

Trying to salvage this tailgate and some other bed parts

 

Start of the bed sides. Off to the brake

 

Done Yet?

 

Sponsoring a race car has its perks, like access to an 8ft brake

 

Wow that's neat!
