8' Fleetside bed - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*79 silverado* · 06-26-2005, 01:53 PM

Ok, I'm going to sell (or trade) the bed of my new project truck here, BUT any sale/trade is conditional to my finding a replacement pair of 8' stepside box sides.

Heres some pics, bed has a couple dents, one shallow on pass side from snowbank pushed into it by the PO, one drivers side behind rear tire from when the tread belt came off on the highway and smacked it.

To be perfect again it needs the 2 rear crossmembers redone, the 2 dents fixed, and theres 3 spots with rust, mainly where paint came off- on top of bed rail passanger side theres a couple quarter sized spots, over the passanger side wheel arch about 4" up theres a spot size of a silver dollar, and the bottom of the tailgate and tailpan. other than that bed floor is not rusted, and overall extremely straight for this far up north.

I'd need to be picked up Braintree VT (by Randolph) or I might (no guarantee here) be able to arrange for it to be in Narragansett RI for pickup as well but couldnt deliver it anywhere else. Take a look at the pics and make an offer for the sake of board rules I'll throw out a price of $200 but really looking for a trade or best $ deal...
