Box/Bed options and opinions
The origional idea was to make the truck into a stake side flat bed, and I found this great KB-6 photo online and dubbed it "The Plan:"
It's at this point I should note that I went into this truck purchase kind of wanting a military vehicle, and ended up finding this photo of a K-8 procured by the British Royal Navy:
Now, all I can think of is making my KB-6 a "mock" military truck (even if it isn't OD green). To that end, I'm considering buying a deuce and a half bed and putting it on the back rather than the flatbed stake side. I created a mock-up in MS Paint:
I found a deuce bed in a spot I'm actually travelling to (Owatonna, MN) in April for $600. Anyone have opinions? Anyone have any idea on how hard it would be to attach to my truck? Would I end up ruining the historical value of my truck? Thanks for any help on the decision!
