That is really very cool. Ive never seen into the bed on ANY of these builds or never seen one in person. Is your finished like a truck? does the tailgate work?

The bed has panels on the sides but it is not finished as I'm working on converting it to mid engine so most will be cut back out. The tailgate has 4 pins and pulls off... again. It was never intended used as a truck.

My buddy had a Chevy C10 with coil springs. The loader told my friend he needed more truck. My friend told the loader to shut up and load. Sure enough, it pinned the rear bumper to the pavement. We had to shovel out ~800 lbs before it would move.
