    I thought it looked good before, then I saw it with the bed and it's like "Man that is COOL". I like the bed

    Really like the bed idea.
    I raised the top edge a bit.
    I was trying to connect the bed line
    to the subtle curve that starts on the hood.
    Very nice job. Slim

    It's looks way better with the bed. It balances out the car/truck visually.

    Similar bump as Slim's, but also a black edge to the bed...

    I like it. It looks good. I'd do it, especially if it was removable.

    Got some done. Roughed in some of the substructure, but changed my mind about how I want it so it will get redone. Cut down the front half of one side, still need to take some off the back. But it was enough to start getting an idea of how it's gonna look. I like it so far.

    ..........what does that mean?

    also, like I said, that is the first mock up and it's not even close to being remotely finished.....so hold your criticism until it's finished.

  18. Henry would have made it work both ways, why screw up two good things?

    I think it's the position of the split windshield. It makes it look like the cars "eyebrows" are raised because it's worried.:D

    Personally I love the bed, I think it looks more complete for some reason. Of course I love it as a modified also. It has been great watching all the thought that has gone into your car.
