Re: Clifford the Big Red Truck~~The Build
After we got the cab on there and everything squared up, next was the bed. For those of you that have had the privilege of removing the bed bolts from these trucks only to have them spin in the housing, you know how I feel about this. 5 of the 8 had to be cut off.
When we finally got the bed off, we had to notch one of the cross sills in the bed for the c-notch. That wasn't bad. Next up was to bore a hole into the bed for the Boyd's tank filler. Measure 6 times, cut once. Took a 3-inch hole saw and made easy work of that and we were spot on.
The only complaint I have is that the filler neck is too darn short. And of course, you have to pay another 100 bux for an extended filler... Nowhere do they say on their website that the filler is beneath the bed floor by like 2 1/2 inches. Chaps my a$$. So ill have to buy an extension. Enough of the talk, pic below.
