Hey guys I'm looking for pictures of custom traybacks
Preferably zook but I spose any are good
Since pics are no go I was hoping for links to good ones or emails of pics etc
The back of my lwb is gettin cancerous, I'm avoiding my uni work and the little voices keep sayin 'chop chop'
What else can I do

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.

I would tube the rear and then get some ally panels bent to shape for the rear corners.Cheap and easy...

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.

I can guarantee 100% other than the colour the tray has not been chopped

Grimbo I never really looked at your tray properly before it's pretty cool
