Looks great Keith. I realized after getting rid of the paddle latches I will be needing some. Oops. Rolled edge of the diamond plate looks great too. How'd you bend it? Do your doors on the body open?

I received an email Saturday, it's finished and will ship Monday along with the strobes for the wrecker and a set of rotating beacons for my excavator. Can't wait.

Yeah, based on how yours looks I'm sure I will be happy. As soon as I get them I can finish the bed and throw some paint on it and start rapping this one up.

Thanks JD, (JD correct?). I finally can finish it noe that I have all the electronics and lights, hopefully I'll paint it this week and finish it over the weekend.

This was the first video I've ever tried posting, I did it with my iPad. I still need to figure it out. I just got an app that will make it easier, I hope. LOL

Yeah his light bars are awesome to say the least. The strobes for the sides of the bed are cool as well.

First time venturing into this part of the board, and wow! Looks sweet Keith. Can't wait to see it lite up and painted. The box doors changed the whole look. Great work!

Well, I made some progress on this wrecker finally. I painted the bed and got it all lit up. Hopefully I finish the rest of the wiring and its off to the BST board. Hey I said I would finish it, I never said I would keep it. LOL.

Got her mounted up, added two 3" tanks, and some of Steve's air breathers.
