stock short bed -vs- flat bed

[landon4421]

I was wondering what everyone thinks about putting a flat bed on a '72. -vs- putting back on the stock bed.

I have a while before I will get to putting on any bed, don't even have the cab on yet. I wanted some input on changing the bed. There is a green '70 or '71 in town with a flat bet and it looks pritty nice. I have powder coated the frame, so I was thinking that putting a flat bed on it would allow people to see more of the frame. I like the way the flat beds look, but I also like the way the stock bed looks. This is going to be one of those hard decisions. <sp> Any input or ideas ?

Thanks Landon
