This truck is looking good. I like the closed bed idea, it makes everything look a lot more professional. I think I may know the answer but what color are you going to paint it?
yep.. i got screwed.. 21$ for 6' of 1x1 at lowes.. 27$ for 40' at standard steel.

and color.. i have no idea. i doubt it will stay black when i get it painted.
