thanks, it has 6 of them. just in case I ever need to chain something down. it also has hooks inside/ under the frame between each crossmember

piratexpress1369a · 06-17-2014, 07:22 AM

that is a cool flatbed

Oak boards from Menard's

Jasons65 · 06-17-2014, 11:10 AM

I'm liking the idea of rhino lining or using line x on the individual boards and the rest of the bed with the stainless strips

rustbucket66 · 06-19-2014, 11:12 AM

Wow, there are some really nice beds and some very unique ideas on this thread. Here is mine. No mounting bolts showing or bolts in the strips. Also no gas filler, just simple and clean. Tailgate opens sideways also.

schpeen · 06-19-2014, 03:01 PM

here we go getting ready to assemble the bed

schpeen · 06-19-2014, 03:05 PM

is there a trick to getting the bed square? Seems like when I adjust one spot it throws off something else.

**jayoldschool** · 06-19-2014, 03:07 PM

Mine just about done. Happy to finally have the bed back on! TREX, unpolished stainless.

Man that looks sharp
Any issue with trapping moisture between the tiles and wood?

jsdoyle · 07-09-2014, 03:46 PM

I don't take it out in the rain.

It's not a solid surface on the back side so that would help. If I got it wet I think I would likely pull it out, let it dry and put it back. Very easy to do so.

This is red oak with pistachio stain and thompson's water seal on top...Vernski

BC Toy chest · 02-20-2015, 11:35 PM

Before photos when I first built the truck, and after photos with my new wheel tubs and empty bed. I will probably go with a smooth polished aluminium bed with wood slats, currently doing mock up work, will post new update photos in a few months.

thejackmfk · 02-11-2015, 05:38 AM

first pic is a 1969 lwb with oak covered with marine grade varnish, the bed rails are covered with rino liner.

second pic is 1966 lwb with oak dark stain and marine grade varnish, the bed rails are painted silver.

sambrutay · 02-21-2015, 02:20 PM

this is mine. Finish grade Plywood. sealed with Valspar Urethane. then painted with Black rustoleum. (went cheap)
