It's quite a project and still a work in progress, but I thought I would update this post with a few pictures showing how my rendition of the box is coming along. I just have the tailgate wood yet to make and couple more custom brackets. I still need to order some correct looking hardware (square headed) I'm thinking the metal bed strips I would like to hold down with a countersunk cap screw, but to find just plane slotted ones in the length I need has proven to be tricky. Hopefully a member can help me out with the latch hardware for my tailgate and hinges, so I don't have to try and recreate those as well. When the wood is all finished the whole thing will get clad with steel, painted and pinstriped to match the cab which is another work in progress with the wood framing. Wood, wood, and more wood!
