What do ya' think........ (Photos inside)

Well some pretty blunt replies. I think your bed looks good.....at least as good as stock.

I also have used a late model bed on mine. As fas as being easy I spend 5 months on the bed to get the proportions right. The bed was narrowed thru the center, then the 2 halfs welded back together. The fenders were cut down to fit the bed .
The contours of the bed were made to fit the contours of the cab, then Caddy fins were welded on to the bed(26' of welding).

I'm sorry you went to all that trouble when you could have left it with a stock bed "even if you moded the stock bed" and it would have looked cool

I have seen a couple of S-10 beds that didn't look too bad...yours being one of the two now....not too much into the fin thing but the work looks like it was done by a pro.

I have to reply with one more pic.-even the stk bed does not follow the cab
contours. At least you have to appreciate the body work(no bondo).

Now that is pretty slick and you did do a great job on the work I wasnt saying anything about that. I like what Ghost said
