Killer progress on the bed. I like the idea of eliminating the pocket boxes. I bet it is a major pain to get all those spot welds cut....

It's things like removing the boxes that are subtle, but make a distinction from the rest. Nice work, Kyle.

Re: Project "Lucy"

Nice job on the inner bed sides, I dislike those stake boxes too. Looks so much better without them. Very nice!

Re: Project "Lucy"

You'll like those gauges Kyle, I put a set of them in mine. They are a very modern touch in an old truck.

Re: Project "Lucy"

Thanks guys!! Dakota digital probably had the best gauges out.. That's why I sell a ton and use them in almost all my builds.. I've got a couple different sets incase I change my mind on the style I want to use..
