Re: pickup Bed Rack Plans
What is a pick up bed rack? Do you mean a canopy top or side boards or something else?

Re: pickup Bed Rack Plans
A pretty simple venture on your own without plans. If you can't figure it out, take it to a woodwork shop! Wayne

Re: pickup Bed Rack Plans
I think you would call this a wide bed.

Re: pickup Bed Rack Plans
Here are my sideboards. I plan to add a top to enclose them so that my dogs can ride in back when necessary. Some J-bolts will keep it secured when I make it. The covered top will keep the dogs shaded and out of the weather a bit more while keeping them contained as I drive. Just not enough room to put all four dogs up front in the passenger seat.
Not sure if your addressing side boards or a raised cover, but this was how mine were done on my "new to me" 1930 82-B cc pickup. Hope they help with some ideas for you. |

Re: pickup Bed Rack Plans
The canopy I built draws a lot of attention. I saved every photo I could find, either new or old, and came up with a design I liked. Whether you want a rack, side rails or a canopy, they're all easy to build as long as you have minimal woodworking skills.
