Default Let's see those bed rails

Hey everyone,

Have a 52 F1 that I think I want to build some bed rails for, so wondering what different designs folks are using. Let's see them! Can't decide if I want to go low profile or bring them up higher.

Off topic, but is that an "Ajax" missle in the middle pic ? Used to work at Erie Proving Ground rehabbing those. Love the truck & the rails !

Yes I think it is. It is at Sandy Hook NJ. The old proving ground used to be there before Aberdeen MD.
