Chuck Most Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 You could shorten the chassis a bit, so that the rear axle is centered under the bed. Short of that, just about any '30's truck bed could be used on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southpier Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 (edited) or make a wood stake body. i think it's important to acknowledge your observation, and next time you may make a different styling change. "learning curve". and it's just as important to know what you don't like, so that you can create what you do like.

Tom Geiger Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I think short looks fine. It changes the over all look from stock. It may look good with a wood side piece to take the bed up to the level of the hood. Wood side piece like in the 50 Ford kit below. I'd make it from bass wood.
