Talking fiberglass bed cover build

hey, been lurking for quite a bit and thought I could post some progress pics of a bed cover I'm modifying. I scored a fiberglass bed cover for a late 80's? chevy for $25. what the hell, why not?

it wouldn't fit on the bed, since the new ones taper, so I had to cut it about 6" in the back and 3" in the front:




it's really hard to cut something with your arm that far out straight, btw.
I've started fiberglassing it, those are apparently not on my computer yet. more to come.
