Re: Umm....I don't know quite what to say here.....lol
Looks like someone married a 73-87 box to a 70s era cab? From the picture, it looks pretty convincing to me, not bad looking except for the rust and faded paint.

Nope, looks BAD. The wheel wells are a bit different, no?

Re: Umm....I don't know quite what to say here.....lol
That thing is legit. I guarantee you it's owned by some old guy that goes by the name of "paw-paw" and he'd rather spend his money on his grandkids, or going fishing, or buying coffee down at the Dairy Queen than worrying about getting the proper bed to please the purists.
It's no worse than this. It was done in every town in America about 25 years ago. No disrespect to the owner of the black truck either. It was a trend that came and went. |

Re: Umm....I don't know quite what to say here.....lol
IMHO these look horrible. Just my opinion though. It would look good with the period correct step side bed
Hotrod shop owner down the street has a 70 with a newer bed like this too. Yuk.
