right then i have had a quite afternoon today so been sorting some bits out, i came up with this,

build centre poplar phenolic film faced plywood -product number N36201

did not get to ring my local build centre as they had shut, but i rang a firm (not build centre) down in Devon and they sell it for around £40 a sheet, you can get diffrent colours each supplier can be diffrent though they come in 12mm or 17.5mm thickness and each sheet is 2.4m long by 1.2 wide.

 

as for for fixing it i will build a steal frame (now need to source the box section from somewhere will up date when i find somewhere ) and get to strong gate hinges and hinge it from the top,so if i want to load logs in from the side it will open up and act as a roof to stand under like a burger van and have some form of metal support to hold it in place while its open, when it is down i will fix it with some fixing like you have on your tail board holding it up. i can then get my sides sign written what you all think

Cheers for getting the prices mate ive had a busy day and didnt get a chance. I think i will go for the film faced ply as well seems pretty reasonable price wise.

 

still un decided on how im going to set it all up yet? i will have to get my thinking cap on. Jump it might be onto something with his idea if i could make it work, as im prob only going to need the high sides for 50% of the time i use the truck.

 

hmmmm desicions desicions.
