That'd be cool. Picking up '69 gmc lwb soon, hoping this weekend but waiting for Travis to replace a few things before he sells it to me.

The bed came out perfect

[cafetony]

Headman ls1 headers. They fit perfect with a lot of room with the porterbuilt pro touring drop member. If your running a 4l80 trans you will have to cut both sides of the trans case. About 1/2 inch per side.




This is before powder coating

After powder coating and starting to finish up some stuff.

WOW!!!... Very Nice!!!!

Just got it back from the paint shop.
if anyone in WASHINGTON STATE is looking for a top notch painter I found him. I went through 3 of them before I ended up finding a guy 10 miles from my house. Charged me what he said, got it done when he said and wouldn't take a dime till I signed off on it. If you want his name hit me up. They had 25 hours in fixing the the other painters 3 month job and still had it done in less then 10 days.

I did. Looks like you took yours home. Let me know then you want to cut your it in half I have a lot of time on my hands.

phase one and first time working on a wood bed. Each panel is a little different
I'm going to go with the far right one. I put a clear on it and it looks good but it's still not right. I want it to be like a bar top. Any ideas?

[lokivegas]

Curious, what would it cost to chop down to a short bed?

[cafetony]

get my number from luke this week and give me a call. i'll come and look at it. To do it righ it took me 25 to 30 hours but it was within a .05 left to right and front to back. I used 7 6 ft machine levels.
It started out at an 1.5 inches twisted but never hit.
