65 Mojo Risen

OK, here's what I'm thinkin about now.
I'm pretty set on the bed being like this. I'm going to build a narrow wood bed that leaves the wheels open. It has wheel chock and tie downs for a bike and has a pull out ramp tucked inside it.

What I'm less sure about is the pipes. There is a lot of empty space on the back of the cab with the bed being narrow and it would look good to have something there. I drew in some cherry bombs, but could make flow masters work too.

What I'm worried about is will it be too loud to have the pipes right behind my head and will I be breathing exhaust whenever I stop with the windows down?

I dont know about Medford but down here you can't run open wheels. They must have fenders. Or at least mud flaps.. Maybe some flaps with your scull and cross bones...

[GreyDX]

I suppose that brings up the sticky question of what is a fender. Think they have a legal definition somewhere?

This is how I would handle the problem on a bike : )

[SIR]

I.M.H.O. it's gonna get even warmer in your cab with a set up like that have you considered "lake-pipes"?

[Chevy Fleetside]

Im thinking the exaust is going to swirl around his window when he is driving with it open. Could make for some heavy sleep, if you know what I mean.. It looks cool though.

[GreyDX]

Yeah, I will probably end up with something like lakes.
I think I could try to work around the heat. They mount to a brace on the bed and I could work up a subtle heat shied on the cab, - might still get hot though.
The exhaust fumes will probablt be a problem too, I like the windows down.

There is just too much of the back of the cab showing though, throws of my feng shui : )

I'll have to think of something.

Scraping rust out of the rocker panels today...
