1947 Ford f100

1947 Ford F1 Pickup

Made into a beautiful bench

I found this beautiful pickup from Brenda  
 

She sold me back of the cab and the tailgate. I had plans to make this into a twin bed but was throwing the idea around about making my first bench.

      .

I really liked the yellow color and wanted to keep the color.


I found a bumper and lights from the salvage yard, and had bed sides made.


After I got everything welded together, I sand blasted all the paint and rust off to give it a lasting paint job. I got some wood and gave it a ruff beating to make it look its age. 


Staying true to the yellow color, painted and giving it a weathered look.



 Wired the lights, install the glass and put on a old licence plate to complete the look.

Custom King Size 1966 Chevrolet Truck Bed

Custom Chevrolet Truck Bed for King Size Bed.

Truck Bed made from Chevrolet 1966 Pickup

This truck bed was made from an old truck on my parents farm.  My dad acquired it with a farm he bought in 1983, and we lovingly called it "old brownie" because of the brown paint.  They drove the truck around until the clutch went out a few years later.  Then it was retired to the bone pile.  The place where old equipment went to die.  


Truck Tailgate Queen Size Bed

My parents decided to build a cabin last year, my mom showed me a picture of a truck bed and asked if I could build one for her.  We went up to the bone pile and measured this truck and it would fit perfectly between the closet doors.  So I went to work.
