Default Re: New Pickup Beds

On my '41 pickup I was going to save money and straighten out my beat up bed.......whoa, did I spend enough hours to build a house. And my body guy put some time in too. I finally told him to stop. Not happy how it turned out. Those flat panels are a real chore. Never again.
Be careful on replacing the cab floor. Mine had been repaired somewhat and when I went to mount it on the frame it was not at the right elevation and it caused me real problems with the front sheet metal alighnment and I had to trim the wood that goes between the cab and frame. That ran up the hours also. Because the cab, fenders and running boards all tie in together everything has to be right. Good luck
