I figured if there was any community out there that would appreciate this, it would be this one! This is my new-to-me truck fender table, which I purchased at this AMAZING repurposed/vintage shop in town called Josephine's Mercantile. (Since they're currently closed, I bought it via Facebook.) It was made by a local metalworker, and appears to be from a 1940s/early 50s Chevrolet truck. It's seven feet long, so it's absolutely huge (and the single heaviest piece of furniture we own now), and I had to rearrange my entire living room to get it to fit, but I just adore it, and it fits in perfectly with my eclectic/vintage style.

What a cute and different table Rachel! It looks great the way you have it all fixed up too. Isn't it amazing how creative some people are with repurposing stuff? Incredible!
