sorry its a bad angle, but this is my old 76 i had before my 78


this is my 78 from the back


my 78 from the side (not bad for $500)

personally i like a flatbed, but in the case of my 78 i dont like that style of flatbed so i am switching it to a box. but they can be made to look very nice. IMO go with a steel bed that has a full headache rack and drop down rear, LED lights look real nice in the top of the headache rack and in the rear. and take some 2x6 boards and angle the back end of them to about a 45 stack a 2x4 on top of it with a matching angle for side boards and it looks pretty good. just my thoughts tho.
