Heres a couple shots of the one I built for my 57.
I still have to build the roll pan for it.

Hi Kim, You bed looks great. My Brother's bed needs restored & instead of doing that I'd like to see him put a non stock bed on it to make it different.

Any more beds of a different kind out there?

Thanks Don.
I did mine this way to try and be a little different from stock.
I have it set up to tilt for easy access to the rear.

Hey Don, don't mean to hi-jack your thread, but I never did get a chance to find out what you used for a bed for your truck, if it's something mass produced or custom?
