So me and "Cropwell" headed out west of town about 30 miles for a cruise-in. It did great, if you are like me, taking an old piece of Detroit Iron out a good distance from the house for the first time is a bit of a "puckered" ride! All senses on deck for the way out, then on the way home I am hammering it down and burnouts at each stop. Gotta break that horse in right!
I can honestly say that this project is winding down. I have gone back over the list of improvements and it is LONG!
I wanted to get the bed finished up before I list it for sale.
Here is what I did: I used a one-by PT frame for the bed to rest on. Then, painted 1x6 planks with a exterior grade black paint, and then fastened them to the PT lumber underneath with stainless fasteners. Looks sharp for very little money.
