Thanks 40s, that's the kind of photo details that someone with a torch, a welder, a grinder and a little talent could use to fabricate a pretty good looking copy. Good enough to fool most people that care enough to bend over and look under the chassis.
This subject comes up so often it would be nice to see a compilation of the pictures archived somewhere. It appears for the most popular 1/2 and 3/4 ton pickups that there were really only a few different models of the under bed carrier, maybe a half dozen.
If a restorer is capable of replacing half the body I think this would be a piece of cake for him to fabricate.
