Could Use Some Advice!
Has anyone out there ever cut a longbox to make a short one. If so how did you go about doing it. My truck desperately needs a bed and I have a long one but the frame I am using is set up for a short bed. Its a 1962 Chevy. I have it on a 78 frame and a 383 under the hood.

It is a whole lot easier to just use a shortbed. Brian

Here's a link to Project Old School of how they shortened a lwb fleetside into a swb fleetside.
