Ha! That's what my first thought was. Also, the OP's comment, "...so I doubt anyone has seen it before", made me think. I've seen a lot of things in the real world I never saw online. Everything real you see online exists in the real world. But I get if it's a show truck you don't see it much at all anywhere.

The filler door is a great custom touch and well executed. The filler tube would have to be in the fender well and I am sure you can't see it unless you are looking for it. For a truck that gets driven, the filler inside the bed anywhere done in any way is not such a good design, even if you never haul a thing. Watch that paint!

This truck had a lot of thought put into it and it shows, in very subtle tasteful ways. Full custom with a generally factory look. The original beauty was respected while enhancements are seen throughout
