Replacement long bed sides? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

72armyswbtruck · 12-02-2008, 02:05 PM

ok,
So I know that there is a vendor on here that sells them, isn't he from New Jersey or something? Who is it, and where is his contact info as I would like to purchase some from him?
Thanks All,
Army

I think they do sell them now, but why not save some money and just buy a complete bed down here in NM.

that's what i wonder. it kinda baffles me them reproducing the long sides when good ones can be found. around here longs are a dime a dozen. i realize that in some parts they aren't, but for what two repop sides would cost i can almost guarantee you that you could find a good used one and have it shipped.

**StingRay** · 12-02-2008, 03:49 PM

It would cost at least 1500 bucks to ship a bed here. You can find a salvagable bed here where I am but they are getting much harder to find. In the rust belt they are non existant. I'd buy a set new if available before I'd buy used.

Musclerodz · 12-02-2008, 08:05 PM

New long bed sides are still about a week out.

sokyclassics · 12-02-2008, 08:06 PM

southern kentucky classics has them in stock now!!!!

72armyswbtruck · 12-02-2008, 09:28 PM

Thanks,
I have a body guy who was looking for them for a customer.

Out your way try Wes at Classic Heartbeat (WA). He's also a member here and a board vendor.

Stoney · 12-16-2008, 04:42 PM

So they are available?

Huck · 12-16-2008, 05:17 PM

Long Bed sides are now available manufactured in china. They have been out for several months---as have the long bed floors. Not quite the weight or strength of original but probably quite acceptable. For those who think there is no need---you only know what you see in your area. Most of the east coast and the central northern states have a high demand due to overzelous patina---RUST!!
Try any board vendor--they either have or will have the repopped lWB bedsides. Huck

**Classic Heartbeat** · 12-16-2008, 05:20 PM

Yes they are. There is a limmited supply right now though. I don't know when more will come in. WES

I wasn't talking about your supply. I do not know what you have on hand. Taiwan is where they are made. WES
