Making the bed fit
Has anyone seen the front of the bed rounded to match the back of the cab on a 47-54? This is going to be my next project, trying to figure out the best approach. Any tips or pictures would be helpful.

Re: Making the bed fit
I cant find his thread but he has a 55+ so I dont think we are on the same track. I want to round the front panel of the bed to contour to the roundness of the 47-54 cab.

Re: Making the bed fit
That's what im looking for! Looks like the bare metal truck they didn't even bend the front panel, just extended the rails.
