'71 Longhorn Bed - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

No dents, no scrapes...nearly perfect...even good wood and nice wheel wells. Slight surface rust at the seam. No tailgate and the camper shell does not go with it. $500...no shipping unless you arrange.

that looks WAY better then the one I just installed on my rig.

Andy, It is just about perfect. I got it because I thought the bed on my small block Longhorn had too many dents but Mark (elkhunter) pulled out the one big crease before we traded. Now this is just extra. I was thinking of painting it Anniversary gold and making a matching trailer out of it. I may do that since it really does not need any work...scuff and paint! Shipping would be a killer!

Keep it as a camper trailer or sell it to me as a camper trailer for swap meets - Bob. Seriously

How much for the camper shell?

That would make a cool bed behind your truck!!!!

Bob, Sorry...been traveling. castiron9 bought the shell for his Longhorn. That shell is the only Longhorn shell I have EVER seen! Maybe Longhornman has seen another one. The frame on this Longhorn is PERFECT! I do have another fiberglass canopy that was modified to fit my big block Longhorn box. It has an aluminmum extension and it would be great for a parts hauler. It would also fit on the this frame and box. Let's talk at the swap meet on Saturday...or just stop and take look on the way since I right on the cow trail (167) to Monroe.

longhorn70GMC...that's what I keep thinking and I could spray it when I paint the Longhorn...same color. It would look really KEWL! I even have some nice Ansen 16.5 slots for it...LOL! I guess that is why I have not been in much of a hurry to sell it.

I've seen one once...and then one home made extention on one.

Camper shell for Longhorns,
When I bought my new longhorn bed the other day I almost could of had the camper shell. It disentigrated when they pulled it off. At least I got my new truck bed.
