I currently have a short bed 1971 chevy pickup, but the one that I have is the low wheel base bed. NEVER SOLD IN THE US.
NOT SURE IF I SHOULD CHANGE IT. |

Re: looking for a short bed 69-72chevypkup
Could you take some pics. so we can understand what you are talking about.
It would be cheaper to buy a new bed from Goodmark than buy another truck. Just my opinion.

Re: looking for a short bed 69-72chevypkup
I think I've seen two toyota trucks (like an 80 or 81) that had something like this? I could be totally wrong, buy my guess is that about a foot or so from the back of the cab the bedside was literally cut off to almost the floor of the bed and a new cap was welded on to close the inner and outer bedsides giving you a "fleetside flatbed" truck with a really short bed wall.

Re: looking for a short bed 69-72chevypkup
Here it is!
This is a Mexico production only, Centro and South America had yet another different design , I would love to get my hands on one of those beds! I would trade you if you were closer, but TX is a long way from PA.

Re: looking for a short bed 69-72chevypkup
Hey Leo,
You have something nobody see's alot of. Why do you want to change it? The PM you sent me earlier about my 1970 thats for sale, it is a long bed. That bed is one hell of a conversation piece.
