Re: 1970 project/ DD "instant death"

The dimond plate looks worse in the pics, it's actually not that old
It's scraps from the s10 I bagged not long ago
It's 1/4" steel so it's plenty
If it was any thicker I would be just putting more work into it

The shortbed conversion is out of the question
To me there's nothing like a bagged longbed, they just look so much better layedout

And thank you

Haha,good man! So many guys are just convinced that the only way these trucks can be cool is if they are shorties. I love them all, but I love the low longbeds and longbed steppers best of all.

Good fab work man.
