..... we are all limited by time, $$ and skills...... if it works and is safe why not.
I have salvaged all the original strapping and hinges from the old cargo box and will be reused with real rivets......first time with big rivets but my work table with suitable dies in the air hammer should do the trick. Will get a new 14 gauge skin precut and prebent. Cheers

Bob, I riveted my hinge straps on the 12 cab cargo bed rebuild years ago.
Dad and I used an air hammer and bucking bar. I might still have the bucking bar that he made up for the job, will take a look. I know that I still have a part box of correct rivets too. Yours for the taking if I can find.
