    Rudy, you are a master fabricator at a young age. I'm 59, 40 plus years in the trades and I know it when I see it. Your vision of what you want, the path to get there, and the ability to do it, are remarkable. Giving your skills and time to your brother truly reflects your character. Good job, Matt, on raising a fine man, brother, father, husband, and citizen. Rudy, you are a blessed young man.

      A advantage to having a hump in the floor of the bed is that it will give it a platform to rest the underside of the dirt bikes. Yet the clearance of the bed and ride height of such dirt bikes will be taken into consideration I'm sure. Awesome build by RAD and a little Brother.👍🏁

      It could even get a bolt-in wood bed panel designed, which could be removed/installed relatively easily, so the work truck usage remains, AND they get a simple way to remove and display the chassis - oh oh! hinged behind the cab? prop bar for the panel to be held up? This would definitely add significant weight to the panel, but might be pretty cool.. I'm with you on being able to see all that fabrication goodness - worth the work to be able to show it off?
