Alan, you did a great job! I noticed in our last email, you forgot to tell me that you were sending the truck to me as an early birthday present. I just want to thank you early for it,LOL. I picked up a wooden stakebed truck years ago, with the thought of doing something with it. I now will need to go back and rethink that idea. With some help I might come up with a company whose logo and colors would "shine" when placed against the different woods.
