Sweet! I shortened mine, you can take a look at my garage and see it. I went radical, shortened a long bed to 5 1/2 feet. Since you're just starting out the project you might want to check out the threads on putting a Crown Vic front suspension into it too; a pretty easy swap that will make a world of difference in how it drives.
