Found some GM factory long box sides
Hello, I recently found / acquired a pair of GM long box sides that had been stored in a dry shed for the last 20+ years. They still have the Genuine gm part# stickers on them but said made in Mexico. They are pretty covered in dust from being stored with out packaging boxes but have no rust and one has a small dent above the gas door but are still in great shape considering. Person I bought them off of said they were purchased form a local dealership for his truck but he never got around to repairing it so they sat. I was Just wondering if someone had any Idea what they might be worth? Apologies for the pics I will take some better pictures of them..

Re: Found some GM factory long box sides
Nice find. Hard to judge value. Depends on location for one thing. Definitely a keeper if you have a long bed square body.

Re: Found some GM factory long box sides
I have never seen OEM panels in gray. Those may be GM, but I wonder if they are made for the GM south of the border vehicle. The color and the style of labels make me wonder if they are for US models. Just something to look at.

Re: Found some GM factory long box sides
All the bed parts I have ever bought over the years were gray with the exception of tailgates. They were all black. I've bought quite a few of each when you could. I just figured cab forward came from some plant and were black, and bed stuff came from somewhere else and were gray. I personally like the gray better.

Re: Found some GM factory long box sides
I think the later trucks were being made in Mexico at some point?

Re: Found some GM factory long box sides
If you were here in Michigan they would be gone today at $300 each, in a week at $500 each.
Key Parts gets $400 per side for aftermarket stamping plus shipping.
