The Stovebolt Site Forums Project Journals Project Journals 1949 Chevy Panel Truck

Thanks for the comments. I'm not a fan of the tubs either but I am a fan of a low slung truck...so something had to give. I considered a raised bed floor, which I really don't care for either, but I wanted to retain the beads on the interior bed panels since they seemed to give off a factory appearance.
I wanted to make the floor boards one-piece from front to back but my limited experience on steaming and bending wood quickly caused me to dismiss that notion. Thankfully there were some good Youtube videos to help me along on figuring out some of the issues.
