69 C-30 Flatbed Build (just the bed)
 
1 Attachment(s)
Built this bed three years ago on my daily driver. It is entirely bolt together. Broke many drill bits, cursed a lot and drilled about a bazillion holes. I'll post more pics of the processes.
I know it's not a polished show piece but it is strictly utility.
