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.

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds
Here's my '80 in all its Burnt Orange Metallic glory. The side shot is before I put smaller tires on the front and added the roll pan.

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds
What size tires did you have on there?
I have 255 60 15's and they look small in the wheel well. Those seem to fill it up pretty good.
