Weekend project: made my son a C10 truck bed!
He loves my truck, so I made him a toddler bed to match mine!
I used the leftover paint that was used to paint my truck in 2002 that the previous owner gave me. Used mostly scrap wood I had too. Fun little project and my son loves it!

Re: Weekend project: made my son a C10 truck bed!
that would have been cool. I really almost went overboard with it.. adding emblems, lights, and everything else, but decided to keep it somewhat simple.

One thing about a rally wheel as a spare though is it might stick out too far, being too wide.

Re: Weekend project: made my son a C10 truck bed!
Your son is smiling because he knows that his real bed is going to be your truck.
That is awesome, my son is very jealous! |

Re: Weekend project: made my son a C10 truck bed!
The red mud flaps on his bed was a stroke of genius! Way to go..
Now you need some on your truck to match his - maybe cut some out of an old rubber bed mat and paint them red? |
