Home Built Pickup beds, lets see em

well it is almost time for me to start fabbing up a bed for the 40 whatzit and was hoping some of the fabricators here could show me some stuff they have done so i can get some ideas

 

It is simple but it gets the job done. 16g steel... Heavy too, and a bugger to bend.

 

My '27 roadster pickup...

 

Here's what I whipped up for my '34.

 

my 31 with hidden bed cables

 

Bought this truck as a flat bed. Couldnt find a bed so bought some fenders and made a bed.

 

awesome work guys keep it going, Lets see them homebuilt beds

 

BTT, id like to see some more too.

nice looking beds. heres my feeble attempt at one

 

nothin feeble about it!! Looks good and serves it purpose. All the homemade beds look great!

 

Here is a bed we built for a customer in the mid '80s. Ignore the "politically incorrect" name. That was the owners idea.

The thing I thought you might like is that we eliminated the need for a tailgate, by sloping the bed rails down, then across. You could easily load and unload the bed.

 

If i were to build one id put a nice hardwood floor in it. just a suggestion

 

here is mine hand made

 

Man, I think, this is pretty fucking happening, cool.
