replacement bed HELP! ANYONE!

Hi guys, I just had a HELL of a time getting my 88 to pass state inspection becuase of a rust hole in my bed. I was going to fill last year but said screw it and let it go, now it is pretty big, I have it covered up with my Impeach Bush bumper sticker which pissed the inspector off that I was hiding it from him. Anyway I want to replace my bed and want to see what options I have besides the bruiser box beds. Anyone have a fiberglass bed??? Please help, my frame looks new and the cab looks new just the damn seams on the bed went. Thanks again, Mattt

Go to Pirate Bulletin Board, register and then you can do a search on flat beds. There are some pretty nice ones out there.

Even better, go to Pirate and buy a bed from someone who already has a flat bed.

Fiberglass bed for 84-88

There is a guy in PA who makes fiberglass beds for 84-88 Pick-ups. We all know how well they were made to resist corrosion. He has several of them available from about 1000 bucks to 2000 bucks. You can even tell him what color to make the gelcoat so it does not have to be painted.

Looked good, I was gonna get one but got a 2001 Taco instead.


There is this place also.
