LWB trucks time to show love

I have a 66 lwb and am trying to find some really cool looking lwb trucks. I am about 50/50 if I should keep it a lwb or go to a swb. I will be lowering the truck so lets see what you guys have out there. Help me prove that a lwb can be cool, show me that size does matter.

Re: LWB trucks time to show love

You can tell the size of a man's junk by the size of his truck bed. I wish I could show youall mine. The truck that is.

Re: LWB trucks time to show love

Its not pretty, but at least its a photo of it put together.





I plan on bagging it on all 4 corners, bigger rubber of course, but I'm not going to show you my junk. hahahaha

Amazingly enough my truck did come with junk in the bed. I think its a purchase rule that all trucks come with stuff in the bed.

Current status as of 11-07-2008 except its no longer on Jack stands

Re: LWB trucks time to show love

LWB ride so nice
my wife had a '65 longbed when we were younger, you couldn't even feel the Oklahoma dirt roads washboards,
with my '66 short bed i had back then, it would try to slide off the road when you hit a washboard

Re: LWB trucks time to show love

I guess the question would be why wouldn't you want it LWB?

Other than its longer than most boats.

Compact Parking Stalls? Forget-a-bout-it

Turning? Well you better plan half-an-hour before hand. hahahaha

Re: LWB trucks time to show love

Here is mine as a long stepside lowered. It has went from long step to short step to short fleet over the last two years but this is how she looked back in the day... I've got nothing against long beds. I've seen some mighty fine ones including the ones posted in this thread but they just aren't my cup of tea.
