I'll chime in on this.
Stepside beds (long and short) are basically the same from late-50's to 1987. That is the bedsides, tailgate, end panel, cross sills, bedwood, skid strips, and hardware are essentially the same. The differences are in the fenders/steps and the mounting locations (holes for bolts to attach).
That being said, don't narrow your search to just 67-72 to get the basic components. Once you've got the box, you'll need to locate steps and fenders. Fenders (the ones without the spare cutout) are the same between short and longbed 67-72's (with the obvious exception that 67 fenders do not have the side marker hole). The longbed steps are unique and probably the toughest item to find. I have a set if someone really needs them.
