really?...wow...I have the stand that rolls around that it mounts too in my storage shed

I have a set of those. I'm on the fence about ditching them. I hate the look, but love the utility... They still have the wood grain in them, though it's faded a bit.

My truck had an aftermarket set when I got it...

But I didn't like em. This was before I lowered it, but you get the gist...

Oh I would never part with that, had it for too many years

I know this is an old thread but I bought a '78 Longbed and I found a set of these rails in a bundle of trim parts just laying in the bed. I like the look and will be installing them.

**1774btcrew** · 02-02-2019, 09:50 PM

how long have you owned that truck? I was offered one just like that with red interior in your area.

WarBeard · 02-02-2019, 09:54 PM

2 days lol. I'm sure it's the same one.

WarBeard · 02-02-2019, 10:00 PM

Yessir!

WarBeard · 02-02-2019, 10:08 PM

It's definitely a straight truck. I was impressed. I wish this one had tilt. Did you come up and look at it in person?

Bandit130 · 02-02-2019, 11:39 PM

These were on truck when purchased is 2015. Woodgrain was faded so I remove it to show only aluminum and doesn't look too bad. Still on truck and will stay on.

WarBeard · 02-03-2019, 12:00 AM

Woodgrain is like new on mine. I think they were taken off early on and then thrown in the bed when they went to trade it in.

weider1717 · 02-03-2019, 09:42 AM

Still on mine I have thought about removing them before. That is original paint but don't let the pics fool you the tops are thin. On the fence to remove them when I have it painted.

Still have the rails? LMK

truckin 79 · 03-04-2020, 12:01 PM

I found some at my local junk yard but they were in the trunk of a Ford Torino so I thought they were Ford not GM. Did Ford and GM make different bed rails in this style or are they all the same? The one part number I did see was long with hyphens, so I assumed it was Ford so I did not get them. The bed rails looked to be for a short bed but were scuffed up. I probably should have picked them up though.
