My dually flatbed project

Hey guys , so a few years ago my dually drivers side fender was damaged via the John Deere dealership . GM stopped making bedsides for my 2001 so I patched it up to make it look better than the gaping hole . JD gave me a nice check

I found a steel flatbed for a price that couldn't be passed up . Built by county workers it's a 5/16 thick steel bed top plate . Nicely welded angle iron on both sides and front . The cross beams are 4 " tall aluminum . I have been cleaning it up and decided to paint it white . Added the toolbox/50 gallon fuel tank . Welded up a front open storage so some stuff can go between it and the toolbox/tank combo . New LED lights at the back still have to come up with a way to mount the side lights .

It's not dually width but when I bought it I already had visions of a quasi hot shot style . So fenders will be installed to cover the tires . Stainless steel eyelets ( 8 ) have been added for tieing stuff down . The bed area is 6x6 . Fuel tank is simple gravity feed with a shutoff valve . I just installed it a little over a week ago . I still have to cut in the gooseneck hitch . So what do you guys think of her ?
