Title: Flat deck to replace bed
Post by: oxmud on November 09, 2004, 09:16:00 pm

Hello.

My 78 K15's bed is rusted out beyond all repair.  Being in Canada, it's tough to find a replacement bed in decent shape (especially a short bed).  To get through the winter I was thinking of just building a flat deck with a headache rack on it.  Anyone got any hints or ideas on doing this?  I would love to see some pictures if anyone has any.

Thanks.
Ken

I did one for a guy once and we used fire escape grate for the floor so when he wheeled it all the mud fell though and it was easier to pressure wash the under carriage.
