Re: Fleetside Truck Bed Side

$575.00 for a complete lwb fleetside bed side and good wheel tub, including packaging and shipping is not unreasonable

I recently attempted to transact with a local customizing shop on a swb fleetside bed, in near perfect condition for $1,100.00. After closely looking over the entire bed, inside & out, the body shop manager decided not to purchase the bed...instead he said he would charge the customer $1,120.00 (12 man hours @ $85.00 per hour shop rate) per side, so $2,240.00, just for the bodywork, not including finish.

That scenario makes this bed side look pretty desireable, even with the $225.00 packaging & shipping cost.
