Cost of short bed? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Montana71 · 04-10-2002, 12:31 PM

I used the Goggle search but couldn't find any relevant threads, so I will start this one.

I found a short bed for sale near my home that is in fairly good condition. It has a steel floor, which I wanted, but will require one bedside where some bodywork has been attempted. There is no tailgate. The guy wants $400. Seems like a fair deal to me because its the only one I can find up here in NW Montana! Anyone think I should not pay this much?

I paid $600 for a short bed fleet side that did not have a tail gate but the bed has NO rust and the sides are perfect as well as the wheel wells. The bed floor needs a little TLC though. I say go for it if it is what you want.
