Re: 1960-66 short fleetside bed sides?

Any luck on finding any beds or bedsides around the Pacific Northwest area? Or Repro parts suppliers?

Re: 1960-66 short fleetside bed sides?

A few months back I missed a great deal by only a couple hours.
Some girl posted her short fleet and it was scooped up almost immediately.

I bet it was, these things are becoming unicorns, seems odd these years don't have more bed parts for them, 67-72 I can buy short bed sides for $500 a side, wish it was the same with these... I've seen people cut them down...

Re: 1960-66 short fleetside bed sides?

I called the Truck and Car shop in LA and they sell them for $575. Better for local's as their shipping costs suck big time.
