tailgate shelf

[old crewcab]

hello does anybody have any pictures of cut down truck beds (around 18" or 24" deep) with tailgate to flip down and store media components? shelf on top for flatscreen tv
(chevy 60-66 era) thanks dave!

doesn't have to be 60-66, just want an idea what it would look like. thanks dave!

nope...but that sounds like a cool idea...I want to see pics of the one you build. My plan is to take the front 24" of a 1987 Volvo 240 and hang it on the ceiling as a light.

Now that you mention it, that would be a cool desk in the garage too. Sort of an automotive-themed 'secretary' desk. Hmmm...

I had a spare delorean good that had some damage that I was going to turn into a desk, never did get around to it.

This isn't mine, not sure where I grabbed the pic but thought it was cool. I saved it hoping to build one some day.

I've never seen one before but I must admit, it sounds like an awesome idea.

Exactly what I was thinking. LOL I thought he had the look of " What the hell keeps knocking me out everytime I jump up there! Damn I have a head ache! "

That is a cool idea. I could see the back end of a mid 50's truck with the step side bed and the chains to hold the tailgate up. Hmm May have to start looking.
