Re: save or scrap
Take it apart and check it out. Are the bed slats salvagable? Wheels housings? Back panel? Cross ties? It may not be good as a complete bed but the pieces may be useable for someone.

Re: save or scrap
Looks plenty workable to me. The bedside may be toast under all that mud, but I still would fix it if I needed it.

Re: save or scrap
The one on the 69 K/1500 I just picked up recently was ate up with rust, but a buddy needed the right rear corner and the front panel (it was perfect, no rust and straight). So save what you can, somebody will always need it, eventually!

Re: save or scrap
I would keep it with the intent of making a trailer out of it and if someone needed the parts well I'd decide then if I wonted to part with it. No if you have a place to store it keep it.
