Quality truck bed?

I want to order a new bed, front, sides with no stake pockets, all crossmembers. Is there anywhere else to get a quality bed besides Pros Pick and Mar-K? This bed is for my 1950 Chevy five window 1/2 ton short stepside.

Thanks,
Renegade

Re: Quality truck bed?

I got my bed form Classic parts. It had the stake pockets however, but you can remove those later or shave the holes, depending on what you want.

However, I dont think you can go wrong with mar-k. especially for prices/service etc.

Re: Quality truck bed?

All my bed panels are from Mar-K and they fit perfect and are good quality. Most of your classic truck suppliers get there's from Mar-K such as Jim Carters. Beware of cheap low cost parts!!! I bought the back panel from LMC and it was warped. I sent it back and bought a new one from Mar-k and it fit perfect!
