More Bed Progress

Here's some more pictures:



I need to fix some distortion in the bed sides but some of it was already there. I may need to borrow Morris's hammer and dolly since it must be getting dusty
I still need to trim the wheel tub and fill in the side.

Where is a good place to get sheet metal in Saskatoon?

No rivets at all. The front panel was bolted on and the rear crossmember pretty much fell off. I spot welded the front stake pocket back on and will do the same to the rear one.

Great work, the MiG will get some use on the 51.
Where did you get the fenders, from in town, if so were they from Princess Auto, Flaman`s or?
There are some other trailer supply places such as RV dealers and Fort Garry Industries.

There you go Wreck, quit the printing business and start a Princess Auto and have the money roll in.
