Load bed is fun. You can post photos in the gallery directly. There is a category just for Volksworld 2016. I would like to see photos you took of single cabs there. Just put them up in the single cab category.

Don't want to overload this thread with pictures of the show, is there a thread for things like that?

There is a hole above the rear jackpoint and the rocker seam is welded at the flange.

It was anytime around 2005.
