73-87 bedside on a 67 stepside?

I have done alot of looking but i have not been able to find out if i can use a 73-87 bed side on a 67 chevy. I want to use the 67 fenders but the newer bed are all i can find in good shape.

I have foud out that the 88-98 sportside (stepside) will fit! Their should be plenty of cash for clunkers to pick from. In my area Mi they all are rusted on the top 6"!!

I think from what I have read on here that the front down near the step is different because of the way the step mounts and I believe I have read that the angle bracket for the floor is a little higher. I have seen that on hear somewhere.

I would say it is do able with a few mods. I would use the entire bed less fenders if that's your thing. I think the 73 and up fenders are pretty similar to the 67 if I am rembering right. I think I remember the two differ at the bottom of stake pockets and steps, but I can't remember the differences.
