Another eco-trucker?
An interesting find today. An extreme take on the boattail angle & truck bed covers. There is a unique & retro-look to it. It harkens back to 50's fin styling design with the the existing upright rear lights create vertical fins. An observant reader specifically mentions the rear designs of Henry J Vagabond made by Kaiser-Fraser motors.
Another added flavor in the aero truck covers. http://thereifixedit.files.wordpress...9664870611.jpg |

Wow, that's really ineresting. It doesn't look like it opens up to me, so I think they have connected it to the cabin. The "truck" look with lots of interior "cabin" volume. CarloSW2 |
i don't think you want the truck bed fixed to the cab.
trucks normally use that small gap between cab and bed for flex? it could be connected, but it's quite a crawl-space. |
I have a feeling this wasn't meant to improve aerodynamics.

Flexing is a bonus, if you're into that sort of thing, but when's the last time you saw an off-road truck at full articulation with the cab and bed misaligned enough to even notice? When I help guys with custom trucks, we usually put covers on the bed and cut out the cab back to make it a van-like vehicle, or I've also done a camper back for a guy with a door in the back of the cab for internal access to the camper area. |

man, thats a steep angle
looks almost like they chopped a beetle and stuck it on the bed http://thereifixedit.files.wordpress...9664870611.jpg http://image.eurotuner.com/f/2347255...eetle_rear.jpg |

Take a look at Henry J.Kaiser's "Henry-J" beloved by some drag racers.
