Re: toolboxes or other storage containers in your trucks
Bought this from the scrap yard for a pack of sugar and a 160 teabags.
Going to fit it under my load bed after cleaning and painting. Just a small toolbox.    Once painted and mounted, I will also add some underseal to protect it more.

Re: toolboxes or other storage containers in your trucks
I finally got around to painting my old tool box & installed it after work this week. I was tired of not having a secure place for tools, etc.

Re: toolboxes or other storage containers in your trucks
I'm running a small toolbox bolted to the bed floor.

Re: toolboxes or other storage containers in your trucks
I've been banging around the idea of hinging the rear stepside fenders at the bottom so the top swings out to reveal a toolbox. Looks like there's lots of space in there at the top.

Re: toolboxes or other storage containers in your trucks
At local show picked up a luggage/storage box that according to seller came off 30's touring car. Can't confirm that but I liked the box and was going to paint same as my truck. After cleaning it up decided it was too beat up to paint so I finished it like this.

Re: toolboxes or other storage containers in your trucks
Here’s my 66 C10 short Stepside tool box.....
Mine is cut and mounted into the drivers side inner fender well. Bottom of inner fender has a nice shelf worked in and it has all been sealed from the elements. Beats carrying tools in the cab or loose in the bed for someone with sticky fingers to help themselves too. I wish I could take credit for this fine bit of hillbilly engineering, but the gentleman I purchased truck from took a great amount of time metal working the box into the fender.

Re: toolboxes or other storage containers in your trucks
I bought the smallest jobox tractor supply had then cut the feet off and sectioned several inches out of it to reduce the overall height of the box (side handles gone). After welding it back together and mudding the welds seams smooth, I shot it with some one step from napa that they mixed up original paint codes. It's mounted on 1.5" rubber pucks from ace hardware that are set back from the edges to give it a floating box look. Inside is where I have the airtank, compressors and ridetech ecu stuff hidden. It'll get pinstriped crazy in one of the upcoming weekends.
All the wires and airlines enter from the bottom, 2" access hole cut in the wood and the bottom of the box.

Re: toolboxes or other storage containers in your trucks
Bumping up this great thread.
I've thinking about possible ways to utilize some of the under bed space.

Re: toolboxes or other storage containers in your trucks
Dad recently bought a '64 that has this box in the bed. He doesn't want to keep it so I might cut it down so the top is flush with the bed side and use it in my '66.
