Thread: Rules for building your own ute deck?

Just a thought . . . .

This is exactly what I'm doing with the 60 series use chop I'm building, picked up a tidy galvanized deck for less than $500 including genuine narva lights and even a fuel filler neck and fuel cap. Sure it'll need a few mods but much cheaper than building scratch.
