78 Chevyrado, I thought your truck looked sweet before, but with the toolbox gone and tonneau it might be better.

Eventually I am going to add power locks to my door locks. When I do I was thinking I would add a door lock seleniod for the tailgate as well, either a pin or latch of some type and will put them on a remote. I think all truck makers should add a power lock that locks with the doors on a truck; it makes sense to me anyway.

You sir are brilliant! Thats a great idea.

Side & Rear View of my cover.  I have not installed a locking latch yet but I also do not use the truck for work either.

I like it!  That looks good!

That makes too much sense.  That's why they havent made that yet.   :)

I used to like the toolbox as it made the truck look shorter, but the big wheels also make it look shorter so the raggedy toolbox looks out of place.  It's all faded and won't lock at all anymore, its so old and worn out.  That toolbox actually came on the 87 I used to have that I bought in 2003.  lord knows how long it was on there before I got it.  It looks sportier without it, and with the new wheels.  I really don't put much in the bed these days, if I haul something I put it on the trailer, cuz nobody cares if it gets dented and skint up.  heck, the 16ft car hauler I have only cost new about $300 more than the color matched spray in bed liner I want, so using the trailer wins.  lol
