Box or No Box? Your Opinion Wanted

[bob w]

I ran into more problems with the steering on Big Dodge wo I switched gears. I had a new Sawzall blade, a couple rough box sides and the Cornbinder was in the driveway. So, I sawed up the sides and set one in place. What do you prefer?

I like the box sides.

The box looks better.

 

[roddguy]

IMO I definately like it with the box sides better.

What's the issue your having with the steering?

Love the box.
Sure it's abbreviated (and almost worthless), but so what?

Who am I to go against the popular vote? Yep, keep the box.

Another vote for the box from me Bob W. I like the proportions much better with the box.

i also like the look of the box on it...i made mine out of a fridge , skinned the sides and squared them up , bent the top 4 inches about 45 degrees , welded exhuast pipe along the top to give it old look and made a box frame out of 1 inch tubbing and dropped it over the frame, cost about 80.00 , looks good... jeff

Yeah the box. I was thinking the same about my F1 and thought it looked kind of stubby in the rear and the box will help stretch it out some.

I like em both ways!??
When in dought just flip a coin,works for me.If it dont land on heads flip it till it does !

 

[rustybeercan]

Both!

Hate to say this but I like it both ways. I like it with the box but really like it without too. It'll look cool either way you go!

It's yours to build as you please but, since we've been asked----the box

I kinda copied a truck that was featured on the cover of The Rodder's Journal a few years ago. Was never proud that I took someone's else's idea. I drove it last year without the box. But, now I think it's time to make it look more like a truck. And, even though the box is really small, it will provide some storage if two of us decide to head for the Hunnert Car Pileup in the fall. Darn, talking about fall and we have only had 1 or 2 days where its reached 70 degrees. Maybe as I continue with the box installation I'll throw some more pics up. Thanks for everyone's input. MAJORITY RULES!!!
