Looks awesome, Jake! I hope you live up out of the flood zone now, so the next Katrina doesn't destroy your truck like it did your first one.

My wife was puzzled when I started hauling parts upstairs no were ok this time, I'm a fare distance away from the flooding. My council district did real good.

Maybe these photos will help. The first is my original 1960 GMC Fenderside bed with cross sills still attached. The 2nd & 3rd pictures we were laying out the placement of the new parts.
Couldn't see any pics in this post.
