Thanks Esteban, most people want to move out of Winslow.

That is a monster brake!

Watch your fingers around that puppy, and arms and legs.

Nice fab work.

Nice score on the brake! That is one heavy duty monster.

That will be a stout bed on the ute. I like the choice of materials. Looking forward to seeing the progression of the build.

Im using 18 gauge sheet metal and 1x2x.120 for the side top rails. .065 (1/16") would have worked, but i chose the .120 (1/8") because it will add some weight to this bed and it wont dent as easily.

Can I come over and play? You have the best toys!

The left bedside with top rail clamped on and fender opening cut out.

my dog Mina had to stick her nose into the picture.

Here is the rear frame assembly of the bed. I made it 65" wide, thats the width of the patrol right above the fender flare.

Ron, that is just awesome... :handgestures-thumbup:

This truck is going to be amazing when it's done.

Here is what we have done today. We bent sheet metal for the rear of the cab. What i have decided to do is bend two seperate pieces, its easier to handle and we decided we want to have the option to be able to pull the hard top off and have a ragtop made for it.
