A hoon is an Australian term describing a person who deliberately drives a vehicle in a reckless or dangerous manner, generally in order to provoke a reaction from onlookers.. Hoon activities (or hooning) can include speeding, burnouts, doughnuts, or screeching tyres. Those commonly identified as being involved in hooning are young and predominantly male drivers in the age range of 17 to 25 years.

Sounds like most of us here, at least at one point in our lives. 8) ;D :o

It has been some time since the last update, but things are actually progressing. Most notably I took the bed to a local body guy (an old stoner who works out of his garage - maybe not museum level work, but I dont' pay museum prices, and I kinda like old characters) and he repaired the bent in spots, and put a first coat on it. I hadn't been driving the truck with the bed off, and it had been raining every other day in MN here anyway (and I don't have inner fenders in yet) so after the bed got one coat I finally put it back together:
