the odd thing is though Dave...this makes 2 I've seen now.
A spotted a 72 in the junk yard last year, it didn't hit me untill I was on my way home that the floor was metal. I returned the following weekend to get pics, but it had been crushed and shipped out.

I could have sworn that I had one too. I sold it, but I'm thinking the longhorn bed I have now is steel floor too. I'll have to go look now.................
