Well i mocked up the bed and I decided that the bed was too long, so i took about 6 inches out of the front and moved the axle, I am thinking of moving it up a few more inches, what do you guys think?

Good move

Yes, it does look better shorter. What are the bed sides made from?

440shorty

P.S. I dig the bigs 'n' littles aluminum slots!
 
thanks guys, it is always nice to have posative renforcement on a project,

440 the bed is made from the rear half of a 59 Ford that was literarly on its way to the crusher, I asked the yard owner if he would mind if i cut the back half off and use it for my project, he agreed, and now here I am. I narrowed it about 10 inches, I decided that i did not want to narrow it to fit between the wheels to try to keep some of the proportion of the original car, so I built inner wheel wells for the big tires.
