That's looking good, but I still can't figure out what the bed came from?

Due to angle strip length... I’d say Chevy shortbed stepside from 67-73.

It’s a narrow box bed. Reason being I didn’t want to cut the fenders out of the bedsides before someday moving the axle back. It’s tall cause I didn’t want to cut the bedsides till I could move the axle back. It might one day turn into a shallow tub fleetside. But for now I think it looks ok. It’ll get a camper shell and tailgate, some skirts along the sides, trimmed out fenders and side steps. The bumper will update and I’ll be able to take the dogs anywhere.

The idea is to rework the flatbed to swap out with the tub bed with six bolts and 4 or 5 wires. I might cut out for the fenders and find a way to tie them to the sub frame. I want to tuck the vapor separator and filler neck under the fender and maybe even face the fenders. There will be steps... oh yes. There will be...

I like the idea of someday moving the axle back. Wouldn't you have to cut the frame before the axle hump and move the whole thing back, trim to fit. A lot of work, but fun.
