Re: Sectioning my 56

The amount of work on that truck is incredible. Most people don't realize that there isn't many flat areas on a 55-59, and that makes sectioning one a daunting challenge. It's like trying to section an egg and still make it look like an egg.

I have been tossing around some ideas for my bed on my '55. I have always felt that the bed is too squarish in relation to the rest of the truck and needs to be "softened" up a little bit. I agree with hotrodrookie about the rear of the bed looking like Santa's sleigh. I want a look that appears 90% stock and 10% custom, using pieces of cars from the same era.

Even with my few criticisms, that truck is amazing, and I would love to see it finished. Kudos to whoever did the work.
