I say tube it out, but fit panels so it looks stock ish on the road.

I like the look of a tube rear as opposed to a tray

Like Jake ? Hallenbecks - ex top truck (US) car that got stretched with flat alloy/plastic sides. Looked legit but all the practicality of a tray.

BTW I hate flat trays. they are really dumb.

Thats what I was thinking

Though in micks case he already has the wheel base.

Mick, even black perspex panels or something like that, you'd save a bit of weight.

Yep, that's the car.(the bottom one) Not much harder to do and WAAY cooler than some steeenkin' flatbed. Lower COG when loaded too. In the cars that I have messed around with trayback style, I have always ried to get the load at chassis rail height, tather than at the highest point the tyres reach as with a flatbed, especially as often these flatbeds have 2 feet of daylight between the load level and the chassis rails.
