I have posted some photos of the wheel wells that i am installing on my truck. for a little explination, i did not want to narrow the 59 ford tail end to fit between the tires, I think that when it is narrowed that much it looks a little silly, I also wanted the sides of the bed to follow the lines of the cab, so i lined the sides up until they were fairly flush with the sdies fo the cab and then cut out for the wheels. it seemed like a fairly straight forward idea, but the few inches turned into a lot of work. any way here are photos of th eprogress so far.

PS that is one half of a trailer fender that I got at the local Ranch and Home store, worked really slick, and really stregthened the 1/4 panel.

Nice work Pablo.

I just realized how I know you.
I saw what was left of that four door sedan down at phil's on friday.

I like what you've done turning it into a bed.

Cool!

Looking Good

What are you doing on the computer. Get back in the shop and go to work. Joking aside that bed looks great. Keep up the good work and MORE PICS.
