Hi everyone, could use some help

[Pvmt-Pndr]

I figure if introduce myself here since this is the only place I'll really be on this site. I will be picking up a 72 Chevy today for my wife. It's far from stock and is sporting a POS big block and th400. I'll probably get an extra block and build it along with a power glide.

For now I'm having a problem locating a bed for this project. It currently has a short bed step side that my wife and I are not very fond of. There's just something about a fleet side we both like a lot better.

Where are some good places to turn over some rocks looking for a bed? Seems that most I find to me are over priced, too far away (as in a 12 hour drive) or in just too nice of shape. I'm handy with metal and this project is not going to be a perfect truck by any means. It will be used and abused.

Any good help is appreciated and I'll help as much as I can here. I'm located in south east Michigan
