New Member - Just purchased a '65 sbss

[cogorman]

I just bought this truck off of a guy at work. It has sat around for a few years in his shop since he bought his new truck. This was pretty much just a trash hauler. I fell for it and decided to buy it from him.
I have been searching, but cannot find a whole lot of short step sides. Id like to get some ideas to see what you guys do with them before I decide to go ahead and try to find a short fleetside bed. That was my plan, but plans change.
I need to know what about these trucks are worth to see if I got ripped off or not. Either way I still like it. I gave 1500.00 for it. 350sbc, TH350 trans, bucket seats, new floors and one new rocker already installed, both cab corners done, and and 2 brand new bedsides with fiberglass fenders that were cut for a tub that he never did along with the truck.
He told me that the bed that is on this truck is off of a 59 apache. Is the bed for a 65 the same? Thanks all and here's a couple pictures.
