Velocity Channel Car Fix LWB to SWB

Hey this show was on this morning on Velocity Channel called CAR FIX and they took a square body Long bed (LWB) and cut the frame down to a Short bed (SWB). They also cut the bed floor down and added new bed sides.
The same show runs again tomorrow (sun) at 7:00am pacific.
Next week they are lowering the same truck and adding some other goodies.
Heres a link to the schedule.

I am just starting my own conversion today so the timing couldn't have been better for me.
Check it out....
