You caught me. :(
My problem is, that stuff doesn't work too well on just pieces of trucks. :?
It seems that I have to actually ASSEMBLE them for "Turd Polish", to increase their value. :roll:

WTF is UP WITH THAT?!?! :lol:

Bill This bed is an absolute pile of shti. If it wasnt so bad I would fix it put theres a bunch of rust half the toolboxes are missing and I already have a box for it. Someday i'd like to put a bed on like what Philip has but those are kinda pricy. I could use the Bradford off the old mans truck but I dont like the design of it..

Shoot if i let Mark borrow the drum of turd polish i get an empty barrel back. :lol:

You'd WANT the barrel back? :(

I told you once (Or twice?) I'd swap the Old Man's Bradford for your choice of dually beds here. :roll:
I happen to think that design is the MOST PRACTICAL flatbed I have seen, yet.

Yeah pretty sure a box would look alright I guess. Just found this pic on another sit and this is pretty much how it will be set up but a different color scheme and different mirrors.

There was that one kid at SOP that had a solid gray dually with a pick-up bed on it that looked pretty good too. I forget his name though... :oops:

Yep, I remember that truck. Looked good but he left before I had a chance to talk to him.

Had a little weight on the back of it today. Had to move some steel plates that were 72" x 172" and 3/4 thick. I dod the math and each one weighed 2631.29 lbs for a grand total of 10525.2 !!!!! on the back of the truck just in steel not counting the dunnage.

Its seting pretty good for that load.


Did they turn their back long enough for you to run down to the local scrap yard????

What you been keeping a drum of turd polish hide for all these years. Damn my cab has been needing that for years now. :lol: :lol:

Well, it's minus a bed ATM.
Andrew came over to borrow the torch and lift off the very rusty flatbed with the iH.
The '93 left here, looking like a bobtailed road truck, about an hour ago to get a bed put onto it.
I'm sure Andrew will be posting pics in a few hours. :lol:

Well just got home. Its got a bed on it now(thanks michael) and I must say it looks pretty friggin killer. had to jimmy rig some temporary lights to get home as I will splice in a new rear harness tomorow. Jeff (stillsmokin) helped me put the bed on and after we got the lights rigged up we stopped for a bite and to find some Guinness and some Stella Atois to make some some Black and Tans, They were delicious. You get lots of funny looks when you roll into the Grocery store all grungy and dirty driving a multi colored 1stgen with rigged tailights and buy some Snobby beer.

All I got is a few cell phone pics that will be up in a few minutes.

BTW thanks for the help today Mark.

No problem, come get that nice bumper to-morrow, the other truck's getting a Pete one.
As far as being dirty and getting dirty looks, a dirty look doesn't hurt a dirty man. ;)
