70 long fleet wood bed - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Don Brace** · 08-28-2008, 12:23 PM

Floor, supports and front panel are sold. Have the shell and the beds sides left. Shell is free and the bedsides $100 each. Make offer.
Selling my complete wood floor long bed. I bought the bed to use on my 69 and decided to rebuild my Longhorn instead. Pictures show bed with original OCRE paint and after I painted it red. The bed is in excellent condition. Supports, floor, bed sides are good. The pictures tell the story. There were a couple of pin hole rust spots in each wheel opening which I repaired before painting the bed. The bed support are good with surface rust but not rusted through. This bed did not come with the frame it is setting on. The only bad spot on the wheel tubs is the passenger side tube where the one corner is rusted as shown in the pictures. The fiberglass shell goes with the bed if you want it. I also have many wear strips to include. The wood floor was under the shell all of its life so the wood is still good except at the back where it is broken. Prefer not to ship. If you want it shipped you will have to make the arrangement. Price is $250.00 for the complete bed as shown in the photos. There is no tailgate. I need this off my patio. Bed is located in Rochester MN. Will trade for juke box or pinball games or Lionel or American Flyer trains.

Bed is now apart. Cross sills are gone. Bed sides are good with some rust repair on the inside of the wheel wells. They go to scrap on Thursday. If some one wants them make offer.
