Help me design a bed for my UNIMOG

Some you may have seen pics of my UNIMOG elsewhere on the forum. I purchased it in Sweeden and imported it to the US. It served as a fire truck up until I purchased it. I have since removed the fire box and all the mechanicals. I then fabbed up the skeleton of a flatbed and headache rack.

What I want to do is incorporate some tool boxes and all the useful bits that would come in handy on a truck like this. Here is a list of some other ideas...

1. Small crane for lifting 911 engines and/or my motorcyle into the bed.
2. Auxillary lighting
3. Possible camper or fold up tent type contraption.
4. Air hose reel. Yes the truck has an on board air compressor.
5. Fresh water tank and hose. Could pressurize it with air.
6. Recovery tools etc...
7. Fuel can storage.
8. I have a rearward PTO that I can use but for what? Any ideas?


So, seeing as how there are some very creative minds on this board, I thought I would pose the question here... What would you do to make this the ultimate off road, do anything truck?

Feel free to shout out some suggestions or product recommendations.

Thanks, Chris
