I think it's either the angle or he has the bar and counter slid together, see casters on bar. Normally bartender stands between bar and counter with sink.

Yes it's mine.....can post more pics later....

A wooden bar was built to go inside at 42 in bar height.......real bed wood and strips used......a longer steel end piece used on both ends

The fenders are cut in half and wood placed inside the well
Bumper bolted to bottom of bar......

LOL, that makes sense. Nicely done. I think it looks really cool! I like how you used the headlights and grill as a light fixture.

Great imagination, My mind just doesn't work like that, so I'm always extremely impressed when you guys display your creative side. Very nicely done.
