Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds
After seeing the C1500, I'm anxious to see what the square looks like in a year or so. Looks like a really clean starting point.

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds
no it just has a piece of concreteply used to make the floor and sides of the bed and they used parkers to hold it to the body of the bed then they bolt it through and through to the bed .
the metal floor and the supportbeams that hold the floor to the frame normaly have dissapeared allmost completely from rust

Sweet video! I like how the music seems to get more hardcore as the progression of the truck goes on.
