Don't take this the wrong way guys...but can we keep this on topic with pics of short beds...and save the off-topic conversations for PM's?

Here is my 84 scottsdale I had in h.s. it had 2" splindles and a flip kit. had 2" springs too but took them out as it was to low for N.H. and the cops didnt like it. It had a 305/ 3 spd std, I took out the worn out 305 and put in a mild built 350. Man i miss that truck. Did all the body work and paint myself. sorry for the poor qualit pic its the only one i have left.

I would bet you could sell that bed quick, if it is good shape, and get the correct one for the truck. those beds are usually in fairly high demand

Cool, that bed was the same from mid-late 50's up until '66, there is a guy on the 60-66 side(strodder) who has a '73 step bed on his '65, you guys are like opposite twins :lol:
