Raised bed floor
I wasn't really sure where to put this. Here are some shots of an install we are working on. This is what we call a 'Salvage' or 'take-over'. the truck has been at a few shops and in a few garages. None of which did it any favors. The step notch was butchered, and the frame was not square or level in the back, so we chopped the back off and put on one of our rail kits. The bed floor had a huge tunnel put in and the tail gate has been welded and smoothed '90's mini trucker style. (not hatin, just sayin) So, fixing the bed floor is the next task. This is not a big $$ build, it's a fun cruiser truck. We have a budget to stay within, and a timeline.
I have used this concept on many custom earlier (55-9) builds, and thought I might use this idea (modified a bit ) on a C10. I had a local sheet metal shop cut and form some new 'boards' for the project. The main boards are 6" wide, with a 1/2" edge on each side. For the four side boards are only bend with a lip on one side. They are 6 1/4" wide with a 1/2" edge.
