Ok so I was trying to figure the best way to keep it looking new as far as the box goes. The First... Sell it. Second..... Build a rack to protect it. I went down to the woods for some ideas, and came back with this It covers the sloping sides of the box which usually get beat up bad when hauling wood and stuff It also gives something to tie stuff to.

The rails on it are pretty rotten. I'll rebuilt a set to look like those ones.

This truck looks great! Even the rotted wood rails on the box somehow look excellent! I can't believe you plow with it

I picked up a 10' rough sawed juniper 2"x 4", and some 5/4 x 3 1/4 juniper decking. It went together pretty quickly I think it gives it the Waltons look (How many remember that one?) There is lots of places to tie to now, and it can hold even more fire wood That's it. This build is over Good Night John Boy
