    So got the bedsides yesterday they're really good quality. Bought a trailer too. So picked up my buddies old Toyota bed to use the sheet metal and tubs then I'll get the bedsides on.
    Here's his old bed that I'm gutting

    Got the bedside test fitted on where I want it. Chopped the tubs down to around 8" which goes to the top of the bed rail. I'll get a pic later of that but here's a little tuckin pic

    How long have you had that full skin? I've wanted one like that for a while and now it seems like no one makes them anymore.

    I want one with the continuing indent on the lower third of the gate. Your's looks nice with the stamp too.

    Got it 2 weeks ago. Has the matching body line and the stamp. Bob stopped building parts but I only live 2 hours from him so I asked if he would and I picked it up. I almost didn't go fullskin because of how flat they look but when he told me he would I jumped on it

    Corners of the bed are done now. Only thing left on the bed is to weld it all up. And add the tie downs. Then make some mounts.

    Been doing slot of tacking and grinding. And adding finishing touches to the bed. Shaved the gas door and added backing plates to the front and rear.
