Long Fleetside Bed for sale in DFW

[jracca]

This is a follow up to my earlier post, to clarify that I am selling a Bed and not a Truck, it is in excellent condition, the bedsides alone are worth the price. Would be great for a driver, but probably nicer than really needed for a driver, perfect for a restoration as the bedsides require no work at all. The inside of the bed is used, with the usual scratches and all. Price is $600 or best offer to a good home. As stated before the camper shell on the bed in the pictures is free to the buyer if they want it. Trim is included as well.

Thats a great box, but, but, whats wrong with the rest of the truck, I mean if the front is that nice why part it out ??? Just wondering.

[jracca]

I as using the front, it is also nice, but I am doing an extended cab project, on the long bed frame, which will require a short bed. I need the extra cab room and it makes more sense to use a short bed than stretch the frame in my opinion. If nobody else has a good use for the bed then I might make a nice trailer with it, I would just like to see it put to good use, as much as I see people looking for straight rust free bedsides I thought someone else might need this bed for an actual truck and get more use out of than I would with a trailer.

[jracca]

I am using parts of the two cabs pictured below along with my front clip for the extended cab project, I am also using a cummins 4bt diesel engine with the driveline and axles off a 71 3/4 ton 4x4. I have finally acquired all the major pieces and the project is beginning, so the bed is a casualty of my greater vision for the final project.

[cstanley]

man, i wish i could bring that one home. 2nd thought, the coolest thing just happened: wife was looking over my shoulder and said i should check it out. it's even the right color!
whereabouts do you live, and can i take a look at it?

[RicksTrucks]

You say your clip, is that the GMC front clip or another?

[jracca]

Yes the front sheetmetal and some of the cab from the GMC will be used, along with the transmission, transfer case and axles from a 71 3/4 ton, and a cummins 4bt engine

Here is the engine donor and engine

If cstanley doesn't take it, then put me next in line for a shot at it.

Thanks

[jracca]

You are next in line, he is coming to check it out this weekend, thanks

[jracca]

Bed is again for sale. Lost a buyer to personal reasons and one to a bad transmission

[68GenIII]

Im in Wichita Falls and have a great bed Im think about selling also. I was going to gut it down but found a good bed. I'll post some picture tomorrow if anyone is interested.

[jracca]

Here is the inside of the bed, the wheelhouse looks dented worse than it really is because of the shadow and the inside of the bed has a rust stain right in the middle where something else rusted on it, the bed is not all rusty inside.

[jracca]

Nobody needs a good long bed?

[farmtruckIII]

I need one, but I am verry finacially challenged, if you still have it in a week or so let me know.

[xshadow]

I would love to get my hands on that bed but i'm in Virginia
I wonder what shipping on that would cost?
how would you even ship it...

[jracca]

Truck frieght, but the size would cause it to cost at least 700-800 dollars, I looked into shipping a cab once.

I hope something becomes available in your area because it probably isn't worth the shipping cost.

[jracca]

New price $500 to a good home by Sunday night, otherwise it gets moved to storage to become a trailer one day.

Does it have a tailgate?
Todd

[jracca]

yes, it is nothing to be proud of however, previous owner screwed on a rubber mat to it and it has some rust, it functions just fine, but a new tailgate would be warranted for cosmetics.

The tailgate is included, but to be clear it probably isn't worth much other than as a working tailgate, it would not be worth restoring in my opinion.

[4X4GMC1972]

If you would pm me with your contact info. I might can come look at it Saturday. I am in Garland.
Thanks
Todd

[jracca]

still for sale

[roughedup72]

why cant south carolina be next to texas??? I would love to have it.

[AKChevyman]

Same here I wish Texas was near Idaho but that would give me a total of two and a half long beds for one truck ;o)

[jracca]

I hear you both, I went to pennsylvania to get 3/4 ton running gear and florida to buy a cab, sometimes its hard to find what you need locally and too expensive to ship. If someone could figure out a cheap way to move large stuff aroung they'd be rich
