Pics of todays project...











Id say I have about $50 into it. Its not going to be 100% water tight, or easily removed like a store bought, its basically for looks. I don't use the bed in this truck.

You should have put a slight bow in it, for rain/water run-off.

I don't like the covered wagon look. I was going for more of the lo-pro look.

Thanks guys!

Well, I wasn't saying you needed a covered wagon-type slope...but it might match the covered wagon type stance you have going. (kidding)

No, the previous owner did. Along with the entire rear end. I got the rear end painted black last weekend and I'm doing the drums today.
