glad ya like it  :beerchug: i was going to weld up the tail light holes but i didn't want to ruin the factory look so i kept the main body of the taillight and made that cover. . i think it looks better because it still has that black outer ring. .

Thanks for the kind words.  This bed bob was my first attempt at welding sheetmetal and body work.  I still have a couple spots that need a little filler putty smeared onto them before I shoot a coat of implement acrylic enamel on it.  Thinking Massey Ferguson Red...
