What a beautiful truck you should be proud Welcome to The Forum I'm sure you will be a great member. A nice Ford script bed with steaks would really set that off. Siri don't know how to spell steaks he should be Stakes

That's a beauty! Nice job!


Are those 7.50-20 tires? If so, what brand are they and where did you get them?

Nice COE! Looks like you are doing a great job so far. Parts for beds are hard to find. Usually all in rough shape. Try calling chucks trucks. He might have access or may even have what you are looking for. If you cant get a hold of him, e-mail him. He gets back really quick. How about more info on what you did to truck?

That is just amazing! Most of those bigger trucks were worked to death. And it would be really great to see some pics of the process. Is it all bone stock, such as 6v pos ground etc? You nailed the tacoma cream accents. I'm a huge fan of script beds.
