Hey gang, I scored a new bed for my pick up, the old one has to go, it's taking up precious shop space. This thing is in pretty rough shape. Something heavy must have rolled around in the bed for a long time, it has several marble sized dents on both sides that go from the inside out. Also started doing some sanding and found a fair amount of bondo underneath. It looks professionally done, but is a testament to the years of abuse this thing has seen. It's one selling point is it is pretty much rust free, has 2 pea sized holes on the drives side above the wheel well, thats all I've seen (tried to take a picture of it, came our terrible, will try again in better light). Also note that the tail gate that comes with it is the type with the latch in the center, not the two on either end, not sure what year they started that, but I need the other one for my rig. The hardware to make the center-latch tail gate work will be included, however tail lights will not.

I'm sort of hoping to trade for something I need. Looking for one or both 79-80 front fenders that are rust free, 1st gen dash parts, a wheel hub for a solid front axle, things like that. Otherwise make me a reasonable offer.

post or PM any questions or for contact info.

Thanks - Ryan




(there is a very long story associated with this pic, refer to the build thread "Bane" for the history)

 

Well, I still think this bed has some value, but there hasn't been much interest. still hoping for $100 but need to get rid of it even if it means giving it away.

 

free is awesome...somebody needs to pick this up

 

ocdropzone, just pm'd you all my info, then realized you were asking for info in general, lol. Anyway for everyone else, it's in Kneeland CA, just outside of Eureka CA. As the ad says originally I am looking for front fenders or dash parts if you want to give me something 'free' in return, or are just looking to sell.

Thanks

Ryan

 

Bed sold locally, thanks!
