I hate having stuff laying around the cab, and since the cab of these Mini Trucks is so small, I decided to add some under-bed storage. I found some 50cal. ammo boxes that were about the right size and shape, so that's what I used. I was originally going to paint them white to match the truck, but after installing them, now I'm not so sure. What do you guys think?
I like that too. Creative. I may copy as well. I have a smaller ammo can that I may try to configure into a center console of sorts. I'll post photos if I do
Arty, I'm with you! I can't stand having stuff all about. With that being said, a friend of mine, as a favor, made a custom diamond plate aluminum, box, per my measurements, and all I have to do is install it, in the same place that you put yours! Did I mention that its on my list of things to do? Limestone
They don't seem to be the metal .50 caliber ammo boxes. Are they the composite (not sure the material) versions? Our local Harbor Freight even started selling "ammo boxes", not sure I trust those though. Either way, solid idea because other than the bed, there's zero storage.
They do look nice, and seem very practical! There's also an advantage to two separate compartments! Limestone
Leave unpainted , blends in better and less of a “ look at me” for unwanted removal of said items in them by the local “winners”
Yeah as much as I like the Shiny Chrome looking diamond plate look. When I do install mine, I'll probably, use some white vinegar and prep it for a Camo style paint job for Hunting Camp! Different strokes! Limestone
