I have hated wood since shop class.

When we finally got to play with some metal, I could out-fab my teacher.

I will probably make it out of steel and paint it, all you will see is the lid. The battery will be stashed below the bed.

I just wanted the all-business "look" of some surplus military hardware.

BTW, the truck is chopped, channeled, nosed, decked, frenched, shaved, slammed, and...coming soon...AIR RIDE!!!

I did the paint in Dupont black basecoat/clearcoat with a 15% flattening in the clear to give that "suede" look.

Scallops a-la-Larry Watson in Ditzler Voodoo green, striped with one-shot metallic silver.

Rims are also voodoo green with wide whites and baby moons.
