[QUOTE="WHY NOT, post: 399100, member: 1397"] I know this isn't nearly like the builds guys have going on with there trucks but I figured I would what I did with an old weatherguard tool box. I got this box for free, it had no keys, a cut in the front by the cab side, but the front of the bed covers it, a couple of bolt holes facing the tail gate some scratches, and the lid seal was shot. But, the box was straight and closed del I tired just polishing the box, but it still looked like crap. So I had to strip off all the clear coat that is on weatherguard boxes then polish it. I fixed the cut in the front by putting a piece of duct tap on it since it will never been seen and will keep the water out lol. To fix the bolt holes I put in some stainless carriage bolts and cut off the excess threads in the box. I also put in weatherguard's new locks, and used a home improvement store window seal for the lid seal. So all together I have about $150 (750ish new) into a weatherguard box that looks really close to new, and seals well. This is just after I started, you can see the box is in pretty rough shape [ATTACH=full]92058[/ATTACH] Small test strip on the lid [ATTACH=full]92059[/ATTACH] The stripper working [ATTACH=full]92060[/ATTACH] Close ups before [ATTACH=full]92061[/ATTACH] After stripping [ATTACH=full]92062[/ATTACH] After Polishing [ATTACH=full]92063[/ATTACH] All Polished you can see the holes in the 2nd picture [ATTACH=full]92064[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]92065[/ATTACH] In the truck [ATTACH=full]92066[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
