No, it's not 100% accurate, but no one is ever going to put out a Vietnam era truck, so ya gotta make do...
This is the truck after removing stuff and sanding some of the detail flush with a dremel. I didn't worry about smoothing out the rough spots, because all of this is going to get covered up. The two posts are for a little extra support.
This is the truck with the new bed and the gun mount dry fitted. the plate, is of course, plain sheet styrene. I cut a hole in the middle with "arms" so that the gun mount is both rotate-able and remove-able.
This will go with my custom M113 ACAV and my custom M274 Mule with TOW launcher...
