Perhaps Ed Anderson of Adventurewagen in Fort Bragg, CA could help you. The bed works great because a lot of carpentry goes into making it. It is on an elevated platform over the engine with attached cabinets to clear the modified folding rear seat backrest. There are many cuts and hinges to allow varied usages and engine compartment access. Perhaps you could find one to look at to copy, it would be a lot of time to measure and describe all the parts and hardware. Good luck.
