Looks good to me. Best thing I can do with wood is BURN IT!

That's terrific. I think I'd finish it with a removable vintage wood-and-leather steamer trunk.

Check to make sure that that tall Panhard bar mount will not hit your bottom side of your new bed when car is completely loaded with full weight including 2 people and a good dip in the road... BTDT Load it all up with weight and have someone stand on the rear and bounce it... better to find out NOW then later...

THAT is awesome! Great job..... first timer?

Thanks, guys, for all the compliments. I will be sure to check that mount, Ted. I never thought about that.
Well, I'm going to stain it and finish up with some polyurathane to protect it from the sun and weather. I'll post some pics of the finished product later.

Ted's right about checking the clearance-- I knocked a hole in my floor of the trunk on my '27 after hitting the pothole from hell on the PowerTour. I had to pull the rear end and tank, cut down the panhard mount, and then fix and plate the floor when we got back. Here is a pic of the carnage...
