I found a new short bed... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I was at the local Pick-N-Pull today and found this short bed, it needs a little work and a tail gate.

Actually I was very sad to see this and had to share my sorrow. It looks like they use it to move engines and parts around the place.

It'll buff out!

big_al_71 · 02-06-2009, 05:20 PM

wHATANERD · 02-06-2009, 05:23 PM

That's ok, the tailgate, bedsides, cross sills, tailpan, floor, wheel wells, bolts are all repopped and can be replaced.

That bed's worth big money up here - it's rust free!

Reminds me of "Days of Thunder" when when Robert Duvall kicks in the last bit of straight sheet metal.

Goodmark does for sure, and I think others do also.

Yup. And one or two companies do repop Long bedsides.

If you label it "Arizona sheetmetal" it will still sell up here!
