That blows my theory of the cheap price because of inventory...

oldblue1968chevy · 06-25-2016, 11:58 PM

Still waiting for mine as well.

oldblue1968chevy · 06-26-2016, 10:01 PM

July 20th est ship date...

**Grumpy old man** · 06-26-2016, 10:26 PM

I just checked my email and no changes so far , I have a Google trusted stores account and used it on this purchase , Google gets involved if you have any problems maybe that's why mine are still on a somewhat delivery date ? I'll be calling in the morning

**Grumpy old man** · 06-27-2016, 09:24 AM

Well.... I just called and checked mine are being shipped today . Woo hoo !

Hopefully everything gets here in time to make Whitehouse .

What's the difference between the "OE style" and "w/o marker lamps, w/o stake pockets"? I assume just the stake pockets?

The 67 didn't come with side marker lamps ( 68-72 did) and many guys are welding up the stake pocket holes for a cleaner look so now you can order a replacement bed without them .

I get that some people like these trucks all smoothed up, but I really like stake pockets. To me that's just one part of the cool of an old truck.

I just got the email update they're finally out for delivery , seems like I've waited a month , Opps I have waited a month ! If anything is missing or damaged I'm gonna lose my mind ! 😁

Thinking about using mine for just a one slot riser.

They also have o.e. style for the same pricing

**seafoam68** · 07-07-2016, 09:14 PM

Woo hoo! Got them on yet? Pics? We are depending on your review, Grump. Lol

oldblue1968chevy · 07-07-2016, 05:35 PM

Please let us know the quality (thickness ) asap!!

67ChevyRedneck · 07-11-2016, 11:30 AM

So factoring the back order time... expect a 3 month wait?

It was almost 2 months before you got the ones you already ordered!

For the price though, that's still worth the wait.
