SWB Fleetside???
I am looking at a SWB truck with no bed. How much should I budget for a complete bed (assembled, tailgate, painted, etc.) as well as rear sport bumper and brackets?

Re: SWB Fleetside???
Repop parts with a wood bed will run about $3500.00 complete without paint. Steel bed?

Re: SWB Fleetside???
I think going rate for an okay shaped bed is 400-800 bucks for one that will need some body work and rust repair.. 1500-2000 grand for one that is really nice.. these are from what I have found.. I have a SWB truck and i have no bed right now but am planning on buying when I get to that part of the project.

Re: SWB Fleetside???
I price all the sheetmetal and a wood floor with hidden fasteners, and stainless bolt kits, and it was only going to run around $2500. I priced these items with Mar-K, but they no longer carry the bedsides. When comparing the wood floors and mounting strips I would say the steel floor would run around the same price. For you, I would factor in shipping and all to be roughly $3000.
As far as an original bed, I think bguild summed it up quite nicely. I just scored a bed, and think I made out like a bandit!

For comparison, here's a bed I scored from a fellow board member.

Re: SWB Fleetside???
Hey I bought this reprop bed...including all parts necessary to assembly (ie bolts, tailgate hardware, etc) for $2600.....The guy that did the body work said it went together very well, which surprised the heck out of me...I think the paint, assembly etc was another $2k...say $4500.....
By the way 72BlkButy.....saweet score on that bed!!!!

Re: SWB Fleetside???
If I had to guess the bed parts were probably Goodmark or another repop vendor. Pretty much there's only about 2 or 3 manufacturers that are making repop sheet metal.
gcburdic... thanks for the compliment. I hope it will eventually turn out as nice as yours did. Your bed is sweet, mine is still a little sour at the moment.

I hope to pick up the bed this Friday, and then it's going to be torn apart and then sent to my body shop so it can be blasted and primed so I can store it until I'm ready to use it. Do you know if your bed was sand or media blasted? I think I got a pretty good price, but I think I can get it a little lower since I know the blaster at the body shop. I'm totally siked that I was able to find a decent original SWB, and I have lolife99 to thank for that. Quote:
