Nice find Aerohead #2040 if i go to a flatbed this is essentially the shape I would modify my truck to meet with an easily removable Arrow cab maybe even collapsible onboard storage while maintaining an aerodynamic profile to suit the load. Start the rear fairings at about the wide point in the body (mid door) and scoop it in at the appropriate angles maintained attached flow and take her out to the tip like a wing
Biuld a strong decking of Aluminum. And an Oratex 6000 and cromemoly (better weight = strength ratio)truss side bordswith the proper angles built like the tail of a Piper Cub.
This is a possable answer for those asking what to do for a PU with a flat bed....

Could you draw up you're interpretation of what I have described now mind you it must have an opening hatch that you can put a refrigerator and strap the top down( maintaining some semblance of aerodynamic profile in the open position) fit a washing machine ( withthe control panels removed), the lid fully clothed as my current design is capable of.
