1958 chevy Queen size Truck bed

Beautiful Unique Full/ Queen Size Truck Bed made from a 1858 chevy Apache 3100 pickup truck. The dark blue green with a yellow patina looks amazing. And of course the Tailgate Open into a sturdy  bench. The tail lights and dome lights work with LED Lights in them.

I was contacted by a buyer about building this beautiful Unique Queen size bed. I set out to find a 1958 truck to build a bed. The same year her parents were married. I found a stripped 58 cab, and a complete 58 box from 2 different trucks, but from the same owner. I went to work cutting the cab and box from the frame's of the different trucks. I brought them home and started trimming them down for the parts that I needed, then started to build the frame for the queen size bed and fitting  the tailgate and rounding off all the sharp edges.  I ordered new glass, tailgate hinges and chains, lights for the rear and dome light in the cab. As I e-mailed the buyer about the color she chose a beautiful stock 58 chevy blue green color. We started it off with a creamy yellow base color and topping it off with a beautiful blue / green color. I installed all the accessories, and made a rustic bumper out of wood. We had the privilege to deliver the bed to their beautiful Lake house in Indiana.

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.
