LMC sells a re-pop piece. If you really want to see one installed I can go snap a pic of mine.

Re: Spare tire?
There was an option to keep them in the bed (fleetside) or outside the bed (stepside).
Today most spare tires are kept in the garage.

Re: Spare tire?
True. I've been drove my 69 for about 15 years and only had one flat. That's when I parked for a few years and tire dry rotted on me.
My 68 GMC I've been driving for about the same lenght and haven't had a flat yet. If I go somwhere that's out of the way, I've got a small donut that fits and I can throw it in the bed. Here's a couple of pics. |
