That bed sure looks good with the wide fenders; You could put a camper shell on it to sleep in to. Easy on Easy off.

For the utility box, I basically plan on keeping as is, minus lengthening it a foot and a half (to make an 8 footer). I may shift around some of the internal drawers to make a bit better use of the inside. Maybe some spray in bedliner for the bed floor/inside of drawers... I guess I'm building vintage looking "workhorse"
