Looks good...keep it up! Glad to see somebody else slamming an 8 lug utility bed truck. Hopefully I can get mine notched, bagged and on the road soon.

Looks great! What bags did you go with on your truck? (Size/brand) I've never bagged a vehicle and I'm trying to make a decision on what to use on my utility bed truck.

Here is a little rendering I got off of FB.... A utility bed truck is in my future!

Your truck is coming together very nicely!

Are those side markers on the top rail of the body? If so can I see a close up of them? I have an 80’s body on my truck and I was deleting the lights because I’ve never seen a 67-72 service body with any on it.
