Hi Truckers, I thought of an idea recently on a possible bed modification (swap) on my 58 GMC truck. Have any of ya'll seen that new Toyota Tundra stepside bed? I think it would look cool on the back

well, if you're looking for personal opinions... I don't like the tail lights on it, looks too... umm, Jap-ish. I did see a picture once of a TF with what I think was a Sierra step-side box... very n

Thanks Mike. Unfortunately, it's already half-Chevy (grill, tailgate, engine, tranny, rear axle, seat, steering wheel) so I figured some more modification isn't going to hurt its "roots." If I do any

Thanks Alain, I've seen several with updated Chev boxes. That's what gave me the idea when I saw the Tundra box. I think the tail lights look very similar to some of George Barris' iterations as well

Hi Steve, I don't even know if it would fit, as I haven't done measurements. I kinda wonder if it's something that would look better in person than in a mock-up Photoshop file. I don't know. I don't

Hi Dave, You know, now that I look at the picture again, it occurs to me that the bed is still too large. In other words, I didn't shrink it quite enough to be proportionate. I don't think the lights

I've seen pictures of the later bed in print, but don't recall where. I'd check Rod & Custom over the last year or so, because it may be in there. The full story was published somewhere, and I think
