I felt like the bed just did not work with the cab...

It's true.

When you really look closely at it the roundness of the thing all blends pretty nicely. Of course I'll admit a stepside would be cooler. The thing I see omitted are some side windows on the ex-cab unless thats a bunk back there. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2002 Posts: 1,571 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2002 Posts: 1,571 | An AD bed with widened fenders would look much better. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 | I think maybe the best looking alternative would be a utility bed like the old telephone company trucks.
I agree it could use some windows in the cab. If its bunk space they could be tinted to ensure privacy.
I like phantom models like this one, but this particular truck always seemed to me an example of how it should not be done.
When I finish mine ('53 GMC extended cab dually) I'm sure others will feel the same about it.
