Re: 62 GMC in need of some ideas and help!

the top of the bed rails and the inner side of the bed are one piece. (the outer box side is spot welded to it at the body line). They are made of a thicker guage steel, and should be plenty sturdy with the stake pocket holes welded up. You could also probably remove the center and front stake pockets as well with no ill effect.
