[MENTION=98153]Elfien[/MENTION] and [MENTION=63298]TLB4[/MENTION] have done it I know. Never seen finished pics of theirs though.

Here is a post about a fuel tank fill with a few pics.

Edit: a few pics of Elfien's:

Mine was just something I threw together on a Saturday afternoon when my original was rusted sooo badly, it was a danger to keep on the road.
Basically, just bolted some 4x6's (should have used full 6x6's to get the tire clearance) to the frame rails, and bolted full 8 foot 2x4's (whatever was laying around the yard) to that, and put some sides up, and a few toolboxes since they were also laying around. It's mainly just a work / plow / haul stuff truck, so looks aren't that important to me, enjoy this album I made today of it.

P.s. She's also street legal width wise, legal is 8'6" and I'm 8'4"
